Nursing Education

Nursing practice is currently beset by a number of challenges, including the ageing and more unwell segment of the hospitalized patient population, the financial load of healthcare, and the need to stay current with medical knowledge and technological improvements. These pressures are exacerbated by a growing nurse shortage and an ageing nursing workforce. Nursing practice in the twenty-first century is challenged by a variety of factors, including an increase in the number of elderly and critically ill patients, rising healthcare costs, a shortage of nursing staff and nurse educators, and a shift in the nursing workforce’s age. Nurse educators must continually analyse and review education curricula, teaching-learning methodologies, and programs used to prepare new professional nurses in order to adapt to rapidly changing and expanding healthcare settings. To ensure the continuing provision of high-quality, secure, and efficient patient services, the nursing community must keep track of changes in healthcare settings. Nurses must be equipped with the essential skills to accomplish this.

Nursing Informatics

In nursing practice, nursing informatics (NI) is a specialization that combines nursing science with a variety of information and analytical sciences to identify, describe, manage, and transmit data, information, knowledge, and wisdom. Despite the fact that nursing informatics is already in its third decade as a nursing specialty, there are still various definitions for the discipline. The use of technology and/or a computer system to collect, store, process, display, retrieve, and communicate timely data and information in and across health care facilities that administer nursing services and resources, manage the delivery of patient and nursing care, link research resources and findings to nursing practice, and apply educational resources to nursing education is known as nursing informatics. One explanation for this new approach’s widespread acceptability could be that managing information (i.e., data, information, and knowledge processing) is at the heart of nursing practice, whether or not technology is used.

Nursing Research

Nursing research advances knowledge about health and health promotion across the lifespan, as well as the care of people with health problems and disabilities, and nursing interventions to improve people’s ability to respond effectively to present or potential health issues. Nursing research focuses on these areas in addition to biological research, which is largely concerned with disease causes and cures. Nurses perform a variety of studies in order to develop clinical interventions to help persons who require nursing care. The complexities of nursing research, as well as its extensive reach, frequently necessitate scientific support from a variety of disciplines. As a result, nursing research crosses traditional research boundaries and employs methods from a variety of fields. Nurse education emphasizes the use of research-based data to rationalize nursing interventions.

Nursing and Healthcare

The glue that keeps a patient’s health care journey together is 21st century nursing. Nurses work relentlessly throughout the patient experience, and wherever there is someone in need of care, to identify and defend the individual’s needs. Nurses are sometimes regarded as being on the front lines of healthcare, being the first to detect when a patient’s condition has altered or to act quickly in an emergency, and this study backs up that claim. Nurses gain unique insights into their patients’ aspirations and needs, behaviours, health habits, and worries as a result of the time they spend with them, making them key champions in their treatment. Nursing is a health-care profession that focuses on providing care to individuals and their families in order to assist them in recovering from disease and maintaining a high quality of life. Nursing science is a fundamental science that studies a variety of aspects of nursing, including nurse-patient interaction, nursing theories, models, and techniques.

Role of Nurses in Diseases Control

The importance of nurses cannot be overstated. Nurses not only offer vital care to patients in need, but they also act as change agents, advocating for patients and supporting health-system improvements. Disease management is a comprehensive method to provide health care services to a person or a group of people who are experiencing the symptoms of a disease. It entails the bringing together and coordinating of numerous systems in order to provide an all-encompassing approach to health-care delivery. During a disease outbreak, nurses in public and community health clinics usually go about their normal business. However, in order to minimise disease, spread and safeguard their own and their patients’ health, the way they do so may alter. Nurses in community or public health clinics who have regular and continuous interaction with community members are in a great position to spot new or re-emerging diseases.

Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing

Mental health nursing, often known as psychiatric nursing, is a specialist branch of nursing that focuses on providing care to people who are suffering from mental disorders in order to help them recover and enhance their quality of life. Mental health nurses have advanced knowledge of psychiatric disorders’ assessment, diagnosis, and treatment, which allows them to provide specialized care. They usually work as a medical team with other health experts in order to provide the best clinical outcomes for the patient. Individuals of any age, ethnicity, or socioeconomic level can be affected by mental illness. As a result, a mental health nurse may be required to work with a wide range of people from various backgrounds. A mental health nurse’s primary responsibility is to care for patients who have psychiatric disorders, mental health issues, or behavioural issues. A mental health nurse’s responsibility is similar to those of a psychiatrist, and includes diagnosis, treatment, and drug prescription.

Public Health Nursing

Nurses have the ability to make a significant difference in a time when public health is facing rising challenges. The practise of public health nursing is described as the application of knowledge from the nursing, social, and public health sciences to promote and safeguard the health of populations. Nurses can have a huge impact on public health if they work together. By teaching communities and providing treatment within them, public health nurses play a crucial role in improving population health outcomes. Registered nurses in this position of leadership are able to influence positive change through policy reform and community building. Public health nurses have been on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, not only treating patients but also educating them about the disease, tracing their contacts, and providing self-isolation advice. Nurses in this exciting profession can engage directly with communities to educate people and provide them with the skills they need to make their lives better.

Rehabilitation Nursing

One of the necessary rehabilitation specialists is a rehabilitation nurse. Nursing care has moved from a traditional paradigm (patients playing a passive role) to a complex and modern notion of nursing that supports patients in performing self-care independently and actively. A rehabilitation nurse is a trained nurse who assists patients with disabling injuries or diseases in leading relatively normal and self-sufficient lives. This could entail assisting someone in regaining abilities that they have lost or gaining abilities that they have never had. However, a rehabilitation nurse’s primary role is to teach patients how to cope with their limitations. These nurses may, for example, assist their patients in strengthening their afflicted limbs through exercise or educate them how to utilize adapting devices such as wheelchairs. Specialized rehabilitation nurses should be included in the rehabilitation team, according to rehabilitation service providers.

Nurses and COVID-19 Pandemic

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory infection caused by SARSCoV2, a recently discovered coronavirus. On both the preventive and curative sides, health personnel, particularly nurses, must play a vital role in tackling this health concern. Because nurses are on the front lines of care, the global pandemic of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has put a lot of pressure on them. Nurses are among the frontline health professionals in the medical field, especially when it comes to COVID-19 patients. They were also heavily involved in hospital leadership and management functions, such as organising hospital resources in response to the pandemic. As a result, it’s understandable that they’re dealing with a slew of ethical issues and difficulties, especially given their heavy workloads. It is critical to build innovative COVID-19 care models, training programmes, nursing specialties, and favourable policies in order to meet future problems.

Nurse Protection During Pandemics

Despite the risks of exposure and a lack of clinical resources, nurses have been dubbed “heroes” by politicians, the media, and the general public for their dedication to giving front-line care to persons with COVID-19. COVID-19’s impacts have been felt in every corner of the globe, and they are still spreading. As nurses use the power of storytelling to share their own experiences with COVID-19, anecdotes continue to emerge. Nurses working in critical care settings have seen some of the most rapid changes as a result of COVID-19. Nurses are exposed to infectious diseases at a high incidence. Nurses and other health care personnel have faced a global shortage of PPE during the COVID-19 outbreak, and institutions have used novel methods to retain and reuse PPE. A large proportion of nurses were also experiencing moral distress as a result of the constant pressure to maintain the resources required to offer safe and high-quality nursing care. Nurses were also faced with the task of preventing many COVID-19 patients from communicating with their family at the end of their lives.

Clinical Nursing

Clinical research nursing is described as clinical nursing practise with a specialisation in research implementation and the care of clinical research patients. Clinical research nurses are responsible for ensuring participant safety, continuing maintenance of informed consent, protocol integrity, accuracy of data collecting and data recording, and follow-up, in addition to providing and organising clinical care. Clinical research nurses must constantly balance the particular clinical needs of research participants with protocol requirements as they practise, all while ensuring that baseline treatment and monitoring are consistent across all participants in a study. Clinical research nursing is a clinical speciality that encompasses the two main tasks that nurses play in clinical research settings: clinical research nurses and research nurse coordinators. Clinical research nurses, also known as clinical research care nurses, are members of the clinical research team who are responsible for the care of research participants. They are primarily found in dedicated clinical research settings and support study implementation within the context of care delivery. These clinical research care nurses are part of the research organization’s permanent infrastructure and are available to investigators who visit the facility.

Cardiac Nursing

Cardiac nursing is a specialisation that focuses on preventing and treating heart diseases. Cardiac nurses work in both inpatient and outpatient settings, caring for medical and surgical patients and guiding them through acute sickness or chronic disease management. Cardiovascular nurses care for, treat, and rehabilitate patients with heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. Because all of our patients have hearts, they all have the potential to develop complications such as cardiovascular disorders. Cardiovascular nursing is woven throughout every element of nursing. Cardiovascular nurses inform patients about their illness and the lifestyle modifications that are necessary for rehabilitation and long-term health. During a protracted hospital stay, they might act as a point person, offering assessments and updates to physicians, patients, and families.

Oncology Nursing

Oncology is the study of cancer prevention, diagnosis, and therapy. Acute care hospitals, ambulatory care clinics, private oncologists’ offices, radiation treatment facilities, home healthcare agencies, and community agencies are all places where oncology nurses work. Surgical oncology, radiation oncology, gynecologic oncology, paediatric oncology, and medical oncology are some of the oncologic disciplines they work with. A significant capacity for compassion and the ability to perform at a high level in emotionally challenging situations are required of oncology nurses. While this may appear discouraging, it’s crucial to remember that working as an Oncology Nurse gives patients with a vital source of support in their quest to beat the odds and emerge as a survivor. Oncology nurses’ responsibilities range from critical care for bone marrow transplantation to community-based cancer screening, detection, and prevention. Oncology nurses tend to build close and lasting ties with the people they care for, as well as their families, due to their regular one-on-one time with them. Oncology Nurses are trusted by cancer patients and their loved ones to answer important inquiries, provide emotional validation, and manage any symptoms they may be experiencing.

Community and Home Health Nursing

Many factors have an impact on a community’s overall health. In many metropolitan settings, infectious diseases such as tuberculosis can spread out of control. Preventable diseases, environmental hazards, violence, accidents, and injuries continue to pose a threat to children’s health and well-being. Infants, pregnant women, and other vulnerable populations have experienced a rise in morbidity and death as a result of unequal access to health care and insurance coverage. Despite these obstacles, all community nurses have the ability to enhance health outcomes and increase the infrastructure for disease monitoring and management. Community health nurses work in traditional public health settings to ensure that pregnant and new mothers have the resources they need to care for themselves and their children. Nurses who work in community health clinics, churches, homeless shelters, and schools are praised for their adaptability and willingness to give care in a variety of contexts.

Nurses in the field of home health nursing provide holistic home care to patients of all ages. Home health care is a cost-effective method of providing high-quality care in the comfort of the client’s own home. Based on the client’s diagnosis, home health nurses build care plans to help them reach their goals. Preventive, therapeutic, and rehabilitative interventions can all be included in these strategies. Certified nursing assistants are also supervised by home health nurses. The Home Healthcare Nurses Association is a professional nursing association for home health nurses (HHNA). Clients who are well enough to be discharged home but still require professional nursing workers to assess, initiate, and oversee nursing interventions are eligible for home health care.

Evidence-Based Nursing

Evidence-based practice is now universally acknowledged as a critical component of enhancing healthcare quality and patient outcomes. It is a problem-solving approach that incorporates best practices from the most recent medical literature, clinical experience, and the values and preferences of the people being treated. Despite the fact that the goals of nursing research (generating new knowledge) and evidence-based nursing practice (using best evidence as the foundation of nursing practice) appear to be quite different, an increasing number of research studies are being conducted with the goal of effectively translating evidence into practice. EBP gives nurses the tools they need to become change agents for better healthcare outcomes since it is an empowering approach to care. Nurses who use EBP become the link between a wealth of medical knowledge and real-world experience. They can standardize care, reduce medical errors, and make a positive difference in the lives of their patients, communities, and the world.

Nursing and Infectious Disease

Epidemiology studies how a disease spreads and where it comes from in a population. Nursing care requires a thorough understanding of epidemiology and disease transmission. An agent (virus, bacteria, parasite, or other microorganism), a vulnerable host, and a suitable environment are required for infectious disease transmission. Direct contact or indirect mechanisms of disease transmission are also possible (airborne droplets, vectors, fomites, water or food). Intervention can take the form of targeting the agent (e.g., with microbicides), modifying the environment (e.g., with negative pressure rooms), or strengthening the host (e.g., with antibiotics) (e.g., vaccination). Nurses with infectious disease expertise are in greater demand than ever before in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak. Nurses who work in infectious disease have to deal with some of the most severe situations in the medical field. As a result, these nurses must be well-educated, well-trained, and well-versed in the profession.

Emergency and Ambulatory Care Nursing

Patients who are suffering from trauma, damage, or severe medical issues that requiring immediate treatment are treated by ER nurses. These professionals must be able to swiftly identify the best strategy to stabilise patients and reduce pain because they work in emergency circumstances. Emergency nursing is one of the most difficult nursing specialties. It necessitates nurses’ ability to deal with ambiguity and frequent variations in work pace and intensity, as well as a thorough understanding of a wide range of clinical presentations, diseases, and conditions. The emergency nurse must also be able to communicate with and understand people of all ages, from infants to the elderly.

In non-emergency settings, an Ambulatory Care Nurse delivers pain management and general health education to patients outside of the hospital setting. In a medical office, clinic, health centre, or any other healthcare setting where patients do not stay overnight, this general nurse is responsible for non-emergency patients. A hospital may have ambulatory care wings on occasion, but this type of nurse does not typically operate in a hospital setting. Nurses who work in ambulatory care treat a wide range of patients for a number of reasons, including routine care, injuries, chronic or acute disease, and more, and may specialise in areas such as paediatrics or other specialist areas. To assess and expedite appropriate care, these nurses must have astute, comprehensive clinical expertise.

Midwifery and Womens Health

Midwifery refers to the care of women during pregnancy, childbirth (parturition), and the postpartum period, which sometimes includes newborn care. Nurses and midwives are frequently the first and, in some cases, only health care providers that individuals encounter, therefore the quality of their first assessment, care, and treatment is critical. They are also a part of their local community, sharing its culture, strengths, and weaknesses, and can help patients, families, and communities by shaping and delivering successful interventions. Midwifery practise is deeply rooted in culture around the world, and exact criteria and education for midwives differ by country. Midwifery care includes both pregnancy and routine gynaecological needs throughout a woman’s life cycle at the turn of the twenty-first century.

Occupational Health Nursing

Regardless of the jobs linked with them, every workplace has its own set of hazards. Occupational health is the study of identifying and controlling hazards in the workplace. This field’s professionals ensure that workplaces are safe and that employees are healthy. Occupational health nursing is a branch of nursing that entails creating workplace health and safety initiatives or observing workers who have been injured on the job. Occupational health nurses (OHNs) are specialists who work in industrial and community settings to help workers and other members of the community improve their health and safety. An OHN’s position can be quite varied, and exact responsibilities can vary depending on where they work. They are experts in the care and well-being of employees. Their public health expertise allows them to analyse the health requirements of people, families, and the larger community in order to promote good health and prevent illness.

Advanced Nursing Practices during Pandemic

The World Health Organization has recognized 2021 as the International Year of Healthcare Professionals and Care to highlight the critical role that healthcare workers played in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. Nurses make up 56 percent of the overall health workforce (physicians, pharmacists, dentists, midwives, and nurses), and they continue to be the majority of health-care professionals. The pandemic of COVID-19 has brought attention to the need for nurse leaders who “embrace the connectivity” between medicine and public health. The nursing profession has clarified and expanded on its responsibility in training nurses to understand and support public health. APHNs (Advanced Public Health Nurses) are providing expertise and leadership across organisations and health systems, even as they are redeployed to new roles or settings as a means of valuable surge capacity, in the rapidly evolving and complex environment shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and health inequities. Local health department directors, non-profit foundation executives, school health programme leaders, and leaders in the increasingly complex systems of care in communities and healthcare organisations are all examples of APHN leaders who act as key bridges between sectors in a variety of settings and roles.

Gynecology and Obstetrics Nursing

Obstetrical nursing, also known as perinatal nursing, is a nursing speciality that helps women who are trying to conceive, are pregnant, or have recently given birth. Obstetrical nurses assist with prenatal care and testing, prenatal care and testing for patients with pregnancy difficulties, labour and delivery care, and postpartum care. Obstetrical nurses collaborate with obstetricians, midwives, and nurse practitioners to provide care to pregnant women. Patient care technicians and surgical technologists are also under their control. Postoperative treatment, stress test evaluations, cardiac monitoring, vascular monitoring, and health assessments are all performed by obstetrical nurses in a surgical unit. Obstetrical nurses must be skilled in areas such as electronic foetal monitoring, nonstress examinations, neonatal resuscitation, and medicine administration through a continuous intravenous drip. Because they frequently have more than one patient to deal with at a time, obstetrical nurses are also expected to be meticulous and organised. Nurses must be mentally and physically strong because they work long hours, often standing, and must be able to accomplish tasks effectively.

Geriatric Nursing

Longer life expectancy is a hallmark of the postmodern era. However, getting older does not always imply that you will live longer in excellent health. Primary health care services are frequently used by the elderly. Many elderly adults have health problems that don’t necessitate hospitalisation but require medication, dietary changes, special equipment (such as a blood sugar monitor or walker), daily workouts, or other adjustments. Geriatric staff nurses specialise in caring for the elderly. Geriatric nurses are trained to recognise and treat the physical and mental health requirements of the elderly. They work to ensure that their patients’ health is protected and that they can manage with changes in their mental and physical capacities as they age, so that they can remain independent and active for as long as possible. Working with the elderly must be a gratifying experience for geriatric nurses. They must be patient, listen carefully, and balance the requirements of their patients with the requests of family members, which can be conflicting.

Family Nursing

Family nursing is a type of primary care that is delivered to patients of all ages, from infants to the elderly. Nurses analyse the health of the entire family in order to detect health problems and risk factors, assist in the development of treatments to address health concerns, and execute interventions to enhance the individual’s and family’s health. Family nurses frequently work with patients throughout their lives. This contributes to the development of a solid relationship between the health care practitioner and the patient. Family nursing is more concerned with the care of the family unit than with the treatment of the patient. It also employs a collaborative approach to health treatment. A family nurse performs many of the same tasks as a physician. They can write prescriptions, but they require a broader set of skills and expertise to properly care for their patients.

Anesthesia and PeriAnesthesia Nursing

Anesthetics have been used in medicine since before the turn of the century, and these specific drugs allow for painless surgery. Although the ability to utilise anaesthetic during surgery can save lives, there are risks of side effects and unpleasant responses. When patients undergo surgery or other treatments that require anaesthesia, a team works collaboratively to guarantee their safety and the best possible care. Patients receive pain medicine (anaesthesia) from a nurse anaesthetist before, during, and after surgery. Nurse anaesthetists collaborate alongside anesthesiologists, doctors, and surgeons to administer anaesthesia to patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly. They give drugs to keep patients sleepy or pain-free throughout surgery, and they maintain track of every biological process in the body.

Perianesthesia nursing is a subspecialty of nursing that focuses on providing care to patients who are experiencing or recovering from anaesthesia. Perianesthesia nursing is a specialisation of nursing that spans a wide range of practise contexts and skill sets. A recovery room or PACU nurse is another title for a perianesthesia nurse.

Advances In Nursing

Nursing is constantly evolving, sometimes swiftly and sometimes slowly. It’s beneficial to take a step back now and then to review some of the most significant changes in the industry in order to anticipate new problems and continue to prosper in your nursing career. The nursing profession is evolving and progressing at a breakneck speed. The ageing population, the move to informatics, a nurse shortage, and an overarching emphasis on specific frameworks for guiding nursing practise, including integration of evidence-based practise, are all contributing to current nursing and care trends. Nurses now must be more skilled than ever in caring for the elderly, as the healthcare system struggles to keep up with this fast-growing demographic. Another tendency, in addition to an ageing population, is an increased reliance on informatics. Many nurses may find integrating technology into the healthcare field difficult. The use of a digital medical record has made it easier for hospitals to provide a more streamlined, accessible, and accurate health history.

Complementary Therapies in Nursing and Midwifery

“Complementary and alternative medicine” (CAM) is defined by the World Health Organization as a broad group of health-care techniques that are not part of a country’s own tradition and are not integrated into the dominant health-care system. Alternative treatments are utilised instead of existing treatments, and complementary therapy is frequently used in conjunction with current treatments. Acupuncture, aromatherapy, herbal and homoeopathic medications, meditation, movement therapies, chiropractic and osteopathic manipulation, and others are examples of CAM. According to a review of recent research from throughout the world, 5-74.8 percent of individuals in underdeveloped countries employ these therapeutic modalities, particularly for chronic ailments. Women are more likely to use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) than men. Many women prefer to utilise complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) during pregnancy since it has fewer adverse effects than chemical medications. Midwives employ complementary therapies in their job more than other medical practitioners across the world nowadays. According to a research analysis, 65 percent to 100 percent of midwives use one or more complementary therapies.

Men in Nursing

Nursing is a profession where women make up a large percentage of the workforce. The most significant exception is Francophone Africa, where the majority of nurses are men in numerous countries, and there have been other exceptions in the past. According to the WHO’s 2020 State of the World’s Nursing report, men make up about 10% of the global nursing workforce. Nursing has increasingly become more gender-inclusive since the 1960s. Male nurses have a low rate of employment for a variety of reasons, including stereotypes about nursing, a lack of male interest in the profession, low pay, nursing job titles such as Sister and Matron, and the perception that male nurses will have difficulty performing their duties in the workplace. The field of nursing benefits from diversity. Men in the field can offer a unique perspective and assist in making some patients feel more at ease. Nursing care is needed by individuals from various walks of life and backgrounds, and the professionals providing it should ideally be a reflection of the people they serve.

Medical Surgical Nursing

Medical-Surgical Nursing is a nursing speciality that focuses on the care of adult patients who are critically sick, have a variety of medical disorders or diseases, or are recuperating from surgery (perioperative care). “The diagnosis and treatment of human responses of individuals and groups to current or potential health problems,” according to the definition of medical-surgical nursing. The purpose of medical-surgical nursing is to help a person or a group of people achieve, restore, or maintain their best health. Some consider medical-surgical work to be basic to all nursing practise. Medical-surgical nurses can work in a range of settings, including hospitals, homes, and outpatient clinics. The medical-surgical unit, it may be claimed, is the most significant department in an acute care hospital since it houses the most patients who can determine patient satisfaction levels.

Holistic Nursing

Since the 1700s, nursing has been based on holistic concepts and has integrated natural medicines and therapeutic therapies. Holistic care is a broad notion that is difficult to define. Holistic care entails a thorough awareness of patients and their diverse demands for care, has far-reaching implications in health-care systems, and has been dubbed the “heart” of nursing science. Holistic treatment can assist patients accept and assume self-responsibility, as well as improve their satisfaction with healthcare. It will also lead to a greater understanding of how illnesses affect patients’ reactions and genuine requirements. Complex psychological, social, and cultural needs disrupt a patient’s balance and impair his or her capacity to carry out daily activities throughout an illness. Patients’ physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs are all addressed in holistic treatment, which restores their equilibrium and allows them to cope with their ailments, thereby enhancing their lives.

Pediatric Nursing

Pediatric nursing is a branch of nursing that focuses on the care of newborns and children up to the age of adolescence. Pediatric nurses devote their expertise and abilities to caring for children and their families from infancy through late adolescence. These specialised nurses typically finish advanced paediatrics training and work closely with physicians and other health care providers who share their passion for children’s health. Pediatric nurses can perform physical examinations, collect vital statistics, take blood and urine samples, and order diagnostic tests just like regular nurses. Advanced-practice nurses can analyse test data to generate diagnoses and treatment recommendations. Pediatric nurses spend a substantial lot of time educating parents and other caregivers about how to care for their children and safeguard their health, in addition to caring for patients with injuries and diseases. They create home care plans for families of children with chronic diseases, such as juvenile diabetes or paralysis, to assist them in meeting their child’s particular needs. Pediatric nursing includes a lot of prevention and health education.

Nursing is the most common career in the medical field. According to the BLS, the field is expected to grow by 9% through 2030, creating more than 276,000 jobs with chances in more than 100 specialisations ranging from school or camp nurse to cardiac care.

Medical professionals and patients alike may benefit from new medical technologies. Many of these new medical technologies benefit the nursing profession by helping them with routine processes and reducing human errors and blunders that might occur when there are too few nurses working long hours with too many patients. Nurses agree that new healthcare technology and innovative medical gadgets can benefit them, but they also agree that technology should not replace daily human interactions. Working directly with patients is an important aspect of healthcare, and nurses play an important role in putting patients at ease.
