What Challenges Exist in Providing Occupational Health Services to Nurses?
Despite the benefits, several challenges can hinder the effective delivery of occupational health services to nurses, such as:
- Resource Limitations: Limited financial and human resources can restrict the availability and quality of services. - Awareness and Utilization: Nurses may not be fully aware of the available occupational health services or might be reluctant to use them due to stigma or fear of job repercussions. - Workload and Staffing: High workloads and staffing shortages can make it difficult for nurses to find time to access these services.
