Technological Development of the Health System

I am glad to share with my colleagues and I would like to talk on evolving practice of nursing and patient care and delivery models. The nursing care is going to change in the nearest future and nurses have to come prepared to considerable changes in the nursing practice and they should be able to perform multiple tasks and functions which do not always relate to nursing directly. Considerable changes in nursing care are the result of consistent changes of technologies and evolution of health care system, which involves profound transformations of health care organizations and roles of health care professionals.Technological Development of the Health System

The fast progress of technology inevitably raises the problem of the ongoing lifetime learning of nurses because nurses should keep progressing all the time and to comply with the advancement in technology as well as new methods of nursing care and treatment of patients. The introduction of new strategies of nursing care and treatment of patients also require the continuity or continuum of care because patients need rehabilitation and nurse support after the end of the intensive treatment. This is often the case of patients with chronic health problems, like diabetes. Nurses should also become aware that contemporary health care organizations steadily turn into accountable care organizations (ACO). Accountability is pivotal because it defines the trust and confidence of patients in nurses and doctors. Accountable organizations imply the high level of nurse accountability. Also, nurses should come prepared to work at medical homes and nurse-managed health clinics which are likely to steadily replace conventional health care organizations.Technological Development of the Health System
