What are the Consequences of Reduced Patient Interaction?
Reduced patient interaction can have several negative outcomes:
Decreased patient satisfaction: Patients may feel neglected or undervalued, leading to lower levels of satisfaction with their care. Poor communication: Misunderstandings and lack of information can result in poorer health outcomes. Increased stress: Both patients and nurses may experience higher levels of stress due to inadequate communication and support. Lower quality of care: A lack of interaction can lead to missed symptoms, delayed treatments, and overall reduced care quality.
