Despite their importance, nursing handovers can face several challenges:
1. Time Constraints: Limited time can lead to rushed and incomplete handovers. 2. Communication Barriers: Differences in language, terminology, or communication styles can hinder effective handovers. 3. Interruptions: Frequent interruptions can disrupt the flow of information. 4. Inconsistency: Lack of standardized procedures can lead to variability in the quality of handovers.
