Current Trends in Nursing II

Current Trends in Nursing II

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,...

Nursing Assessment

Nursing Assessment

The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.
The nurse collects all aspects of the patient's health in the initial assessment, establishing priorities for ongoing focused assessments...

Ethical Issues

Ethical Issues

Nurses are essential in patient care, upholding the ethical principles of their profession and effectively navigating ethical dilemmas. Neglecting ethical issues can lead to inadequate patient care, compromised therapeutic relationships, and moral distress among healthcare workers.
Ethical Concerns in Healthcare:

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing...

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

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

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:

Nursing
Health Informatics
Healthcare Management

Background:

Nursing assessment is crucial for patient care.
Technology integration in healthcare presents both opportunities and challenges.
Understanding nurses' experiences with new technologies is vital.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the impact of technology on nursing assessment.
To explore the challenges nurses face in technology-enabled healthcare environments.
To examine the influence of early warning systems and nurse autonomy.

Main Methods:

Qualitative, descriptive research design.
Semi-structured interviews with ten ward nurses in New Zealand.
Thematic analysis of interview data.

Main Results:

Technology and Early Warning Scores significantly influence clinical decision-making in nursing assessments.
Nurses' critical thinking may be compromised in complex, technology-driven environments.
A conflict exists between theoretical nurse autonomy and practical hospital risk-management policies.

Conclusions:

Technological integration requires careful consideration of its effect on nursing practice and autonomy.
Hospital policies and prescriptive algorithms can restrict nurses' ability to exercise autonomous judgment.
Further research is needed to balance technological advancements with professional nursing autonomy.
