Several factors can contribute to data entry errors in nursing:
1. Workload and Fatigue: Nurses often work long hours under stressful conditions, which can lead to fatigue and increase the likelihood of errors. 2. Inadequate Training: Insufficient training on how to use EHR systems can result in mistakes. 3. Complexity of Systems: Some EHR systems are not user-friendly and can be difficult to navigate. 4. Multitasking: Nurses frequently juggle multiple tasks at once, which can lead to distractions and errors. 5. Poor Communication: Miscommunications between healthcare team members can result in incorrect data entry.
