What Challenges Affect Patient Retention in Nursing?
Several challenges can impact patient retention, including:
Workload and Burnout: High workload and burnout among nurses can lead to decreased job satisfaction and quality of care, affecting patient retention. Communication Barriers: Language differences and cultural barriers can hinder effective communication, leading to misunderstandings and reduced patient satisfaction. Access to Care: Limited access to healthcare services, whether due to geographical, financial, or logistical reasons, can affect a patient's ability to return for follow-up care.
