I work in a small family practice office, where the nursing shortage is not really noticeable. I have spoken to many nurses in hospitals, and took a refresher course in hospital, and in those settings the nursing shortage is absolutely inhuman! I could never work in a situation like that. I struggle to see how a WI-FI system could help at all. HIPAA violations would be constant, as discussing a case while caring for another pt would be the order of the day. The only solution is more RNs, and better pay and benefits for the RNs that are working now.
