Current Trends in Nursing II

2.0K
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.5K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.3K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

2.4K
The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Disability Studies
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Home care is increasingly reliant on health technologies.
  • These technologies often assume user ability and willingness to interact.
  • This reliance raises concerns for people with disabilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the utility and disadvantages of home care technologies for people with disabilities.
  • To apply an "ability expectations" lens to technology development and use.
  • To synthesize existing literature on home care technology and disability.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search across multiple academic databases (Scopus, Web of Science, etc.).
  • Inclusion of relevant background knowledge and academic literature.
  • Examination of "ability expectations" in home care technology design and discourse.

Main Results:

  • Home care technologies can lead to new forms of exclusion and powerlessness for people with disabilities.
  • "Ableism" influences technology development, impacting accessibility and utility.
  • Current technology design may not adequately serve diverse abilities.

Conclusions:

  • Critical examination of home care technologies is essential for the rights and dignity of people with disabilities.
  • Participatory design processes are recommended to prevent technological exclusion.
  • Addressing "ability expectations" is crucial for equitable health technology development.
