Take advantage of today’s tools to enhance—not replace—your expert patient education. With the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies, there’s no shortage of tools at nurses’ fingertips that can help them develop equitable, understandable patient-facing materials. However, nurses should remember that the tools are intended to enhance—not replace—their expert patient education. “Although technology can assist, there’s really no substitute for the conversations and

Mashup Score: 1Episode 335: Ultrasound-Guided IV Placement in the Oncology Setting | Oncology Nursing Society - 27 day(s) ago

But we know now that our patients are sicker. There are more DIVA patients, or difficult IV access patients. We’ve got to put the patient first, and we’ve got to use the best technology. So I’ve really come full circle with my thinking.
