What are the Challenges in Implementing Ergonomic Equipment?
Despite its benefits, implementing ergonomic equipment in nursing settings can be challenging:
Cost: High-quality ergonomic equipment can be expensive, making it difficult for some healthcare facilities to invest in it. Training: Proper use of ergonomic equipment often requires training. Without adequate instruction, nurses might not use the equipment correctly, reducing its effectiveness. Resistance to Change: Some nurses may be reluctant to adopt new tools and practices, preferring to stick with familiar methods.
