What Challenges Do Nurses Face with EHR Integration?
Despite the benefits, nurses face several challenges when integrating EHRs:
Usability Issues: Some EHR systems can be complex and not user-friendly, leading to frustration and decreased productivity. Training and Education: Adequate training is essential for nurses to effectively use EHRs. Lack of training can result in improper use and errors. Time Constraints: Documentation using EHRs can be time-consuming, taking time away from direct patient care. Interoperability: EHR systems from different vendors may not communicate effectively, leading to fragmented patient information.
