Nurses often serve as the linchpin in healthcare systems due to their direct interaction with patients and other healthcare professionals. The complexity influences nursing practice in multiple ways:
Patient Care Coordination: Nurses must manage and coordinate care across various departments and specialties, ensuring that patients receive holistic and continuous care. Documentation: Comprehensive and accurate documentation is crucial. Nurses are responsible for maintaining records that are not only detailed but also accessible to other healthcare providers. Technology Integration: The use of advanced healthcare technologies, such as Electronic Health Records (EHR) and telehealth services, requires nurses to be proficient in these tools for effective patient management.
