What are the Challenges and Ethical Considerations?
Despite its promising potential, the use of nanotechnology in nursing comes with certain challenges and ethical considerations:
Safety Concerns: The long-term effects of nanoparticles on human health and the environment are not yet fully understood. Cost: The development and implementation of nanotechnology can be expensive, potentially limiting access to advanced treatments. Ethical Issues: Issues related to patient consent, privacy, and the potential for misuse of nanotechnology need to be addressed. Regulation: Establishing appropriate regulatory frameworks to ensure the safe use of nanotechnology is crucial.
