How Does Technology Enhance Patient Outcomes in Nursing?
Advancements in technology have revolutionized nursing practice and patient care. Some key technologies include:
- Electronic Health Records (EHRs): EHRs provide comprehensive patient information, enabling more accurate diagnoses and personalized care plans. - Telehealth: Telehealth services allow nurses to monitor and provide care to patients remotely, ensuring continuous care and reducing hospital visits. - Wearable Devices: Devices that monitor vital signs and other health metrics in real-time can alert nurses to potential issues before they become critical.
