There’s a common perception that nurses may be hesitant to embrace new tools and systems. But is this really the case? This panel will explore whether nurses are genuinely resistant to technology or if their hesitancy stems from a thoughtful consideration of trust, ethical implications, workflow impacts, patient care, and professional autonomy. Panelists will unpack the root causes of any reluctance, explore the role of training and support, and discuss how thoughtful tech design can empower rather than hinder nurses. Let's separate fact from fiction and explore what it will take to bridge the gap between hesitation and impactful utilization!
