What Are the Challenges of Using Mobile Apps in Nursing?
While mobile apps offer many benefits, they also come with challenges that need to be addressed:
- Data Security: Ensuring the protection of sensitive patient information is paramount. Breaches can lead to severe consequences. - Cost: Some apps may require subscription fees, which can be a barrier for individual nurses or smaller healthcare facilities. - Technology Limitations: Not all nurses may be comfortable using advanced technology, necessitating training and support. - Reliability: Dependence on technology means that any technical issues can disrupt workflow and patient care.
