Communication Barriers with Technology

In my opinion, technology helps and hinders the attempts to overcome communication barriers in health care. As technology advances, new devices are developed that aid in monitoring the heart and blood pressure, and allow for storage of data and information of the patient. As a result, health care professionals are able to see past data and communicate more efficiently with others.

Furthermore, when technology is so new that there are still program errors to be worked out, or there are nurses who lack knowledge of these types of technologies, there are significant barriers to communicating accurate information with other professionals. As a result of these barriers, we should all take the time to learn a little more each time we are exposed to new technology. After all, technology is here to stay.

'It isn't always this complicated'

While this activity appears convenient, play safely!
Utilize facilities where trained professionals are
there to help, assist and educate you on unfamiliar
equipment. Or find a buddy to jog local trails and
enjoy the fresh air and outdoors.
Till next time, enjoy whatever you do, just get out
and do it!
Take care,
