What are the Consequences of System Incompatibility?
System incompatibility can lead to several negative outcomes, including: - Patient Safety Risks: Errors in medication administration or miscommunication of patient information can harm patients. - Increased Workload: Nurses may spend more time on administrative tasks, reducing the time available for patient care. - Data Fragmentation: Incompatible systems can result in incomplete or inaccurate patient records, affecting the continuity of care. - Financial Costs: Inefficiencies and errors can lead to increased healthcare costs due to additional treatments or extended hospital stays.
