Nurses encounter several issues when dealing with EHRs, including:
Usability: Many EHR systems are not user-friendly, leading to frustration and increased time spent on documentation instead of patient care. Training: Insufficient training programs can leave nurses feeling unprepared to use EHR systems effectively. Technical Issues: System downtimes, slow performance, and frequent software updates can disrupt the workflow. Interoperability: Lack of integration between different EHR systems can hinder the seamless exchange of patient information, complicating care coordination. Data Entry: High volumes of data entry can lead to errors and burnout, reducing the quality of care.
