What are the Challenges of Increased Transparency in Nursing?
While transparency offers many benefits, it also comes with challenges:
Privacy Concerns: Ensuring that patient information is shared transparently while maintaining confidentiality can be challenging. Data Accuracy: Inaccurate or incomplete data can lead to misinformation and mistrust. Resource Intensive: Implementing transparency measures such as EHRs and patient portals requires significant investment in technology and training. Cultural Resistance: There may be resistance from healthcare providers who are not accustomed to open communication and transparency.
