Some common areas where employers might resist changes include:
Staffing Ratios: Many healthcare facilities resist changes to nurse-to-patient ratios, even though lower ratios can improve patient outcomes. Unionization: Employers often resist union efforts, fearing increased costs and loss of control over staffing decisions. Technology: Implementation of new technologies, such as electronic health records (EHRs), can face resistance due to the costs and training required. Professional Development: Employers might be reluctant to invest in ongoing education and training for nurses, despite the benefits of a more skilled workforce.
