What Role Do Nurses Play in Collaborative Treatments?
Nurses often work as part of a multidisciplinary team that includes physicians, therapists, and other healthcare professionals. In this collaborative setting, nurses:
Communicate patient needs and responses to treatments with the team. Coordinate care to ensure that treatments are administered in a timely and efficient manner. Advocate for the patient's best interests, ensuring that all aspects of their health are addressed. Educate other team members about specific nursing interventions and their importance in the overall care plan.
