Empowering Nurses in Collaborative Healthcare: A Focus on Communication, Safety, and Patient Outcomes

Abstract

Nurses play a central role in collaborative healthcare, acting as the primary bridge between patients and multidisciplinary teams (Karam et al., 2021). They coordinate care, ensure smooth communication among team members, and advocate for patients’ needs (Kwame & Petrucka, 2021). Their unique position at the intersection of direct patient care and healthcare systems makes them indispensable for delivering holistic and efficient care that prioritizes patient outcomes (Al Yami et al., 2023).
