Why Nurses Are The Backbone Of HealthCare Systems

Have you ever wondered what the healthcare system would be like without efficient collaboration and coordination? How will it carry out day to day operations without the input of nursing staff that aid doctors in making strategic decisions? Who would actually be responsible to bridge the gap between patients and healthcare practitioners? If concluded, the aforementioned points emphasize on the importance of nurses. Without their expertise, no hospital or institution will be able to function.

History Of Nursing

Nursing as a profession has existed throughout history, although it has evolved considerably over time. In the current healthcare system, nurses are one of the most trusted healthcare professionals with a significant role to play in the treatment and medical care of the sick.

The term nurse originates from the Latin word nutire, which means to suckle. This is because it referred primarily to a wet-nurse in the early days and only evolved into a person who cares for the sick in the late 16th century.

Understanding The Role Of Nurses

Nurses make up the backbone of the  healthcare industry. As patient advocates and skilled care providers, the role of nurses has never been more important in meeting the healthcare needs of a growing number of patients.

Most recently, the demands of an increasingly complex healthcare industry have meant that in this new landscape the role of nurses has changed.
