What challenges do nurses face in adhering to protocols?
Nurses may face several challenges in adhering to protocols, including time constraints, resource limitations, and varying levels of protocol awareness among staff. In high-pressure environments, such as emergency departments, nurses must balance protocol adherence with the need for quick decision-making. Additionally, inconsistencies in protocol implementation across different units or shifts can lead to confusion and potential errors. Continuous education and strong leadership are essential to overcoming these challenges.
