Question

For years, Victoria has been torn between the desire to practice nursing in the vibrant, metropolitan city, or in her peaceful, mountainous hometown in the country with her family. She wonders how the two experiences differ. How do the demands differ? How does the technology differ? To learn more about these differences, she explores a variety of education scenarios, including computer-based virtual reality, simulations, and real-life scenarios in both urban and rural settings. How do you think the demands and technologies differ? How can virtual reality, simulations, and real-life scenarios be designed to provide optimal education for nursing students? How might they be integrated into the nursing school curriculum to increase patient, practitioner, and hospital safety?

Answer 1

Answer: The urban area is totally developed and hospitals have high and advanced technology to diagnose patient as well as to deliver a quality of care to the patient by using technologies. Both the location that is urban and rural do not have any kind of comparison because in the rural areas the things are underdeveloped and it is not that much easy to work to those areas where there is little facilities to provide better quality of health care to the patients as the nurse main aim to provide quality of care to the patients. In the urban area here is highly skilled health care professionals who take care of the people as well as use of advanced technologies such as EHR where all the patient's information are being saved electronically whereas in the rural area still paperwork is done. Healthcare professionals working in the rural areas have to work hard as compare to the other areas. Nursing practice and education need a proper base of information and facilities to integrate the knowledge.
