Technologic Competence as Caring in Critical Care Nursing

Article Abstract:

Medical technologies have improved patient outcomes but have complicated nursing practice. Mechanical procedures, documentation directives and monitoring tasks are time-consuming, forcing nurses to reduce the attention directed at patients. Instead of focusing solely on technological proficiency, critical care should incorporate patient satisfaction as an indicator of quality care. This will ensure that medical care remains focused on patients and ethical values.
