What Challenges Do Nurses Face When Dealing with Denial?
Dealing with denial can pose several challenges for nurses, including:
- Emotional Strain: Continuously addressing denial can be emotionally taxing for nurses. - Non-Adherence: Patients in denial may not follow treatment plans, leading to complications. - Conflict: Disagreements between patients, families, and healthcare providers about the reality of the condition. - Resource Limitations: Limited time and resources to provide extensive education and support.
