Exploring the Contribution of Engineering in Enhancing Workflow and Efficiency in Nursing

Abstract

Complex health concerns demand a very competent solution that incorporates groups of experts from several fields. When the biomedical engineering viewpoint is extended to contain nursing's real-world viewpoint, there are opportunities for improved technology-nurse interactions and eventual innovations. The finest arrangement for a competent nurse engineer who may consider cutting-edge and original ideas which can enhance patient care and results is found in dual nursing engineering degree programs. An analysis of the literature gives background information on innovation and engineering in nursing, justifies the construction of two ground-breaking joint degrees, and provides a description of those programs. These ground-breaking initiatives will progress medical technology while maximizing the nursing profession's potential to contribute to the development and use of original ideas. Additionally, by giving students who are enrolled in separate Bachelor of Science in Nursing interdisciplinary training and exposure, they can advance their knowledge and skills. If nurses are not actively involved in the discovery and design of patient care devices, significant chances for patient care enhancement are missing. To take advantage of nurse creativity and produce improvements in patient care, creative nurse and engineer cooperation are required. This article's main goal is to highlight two cutting-edge biomedical engineering and nursing collaborations that aim to train innovative professionals and create novel knowledge
