O presente e o futuro da Enfermagem no Admirável Mundo Novo

Abstract

The "Brave New World" envisioned a society dominated by scientific and technological progress that went as far as to subjugate and dehumanize human beings. The future foreseen in this literary work is not far from what we are currently experiencing. Thus, considering that Nursing is affected and challenged in the midst of these technological transformations, this article aims to discuss the present and future of Nursing in a society that is undergoing constant technological transformations. In the midst of a whole technological apparatus in which fundamental procedures begin to be carried out by machines, Nursing needs to begin reflecting on what would be the best posture or its differential in a world with strong technological tendencies. Future transformations are still uncertain, nonetheless they will drastically change the way individuals relate to one another and to health services. Even in the midst of these uncertainties arising from present and future technological and scientific advances, the nature of Nursing which is essentially based on human interactions, can guarantee a place of prominence for this profession in society.

Predicted Influences of Artificial Intelligence on Nursing Education: Scoping Review

“…In addition to the need for new AI technological competencies, several authors accentuated the importance of a continued focus on interpersonal human communication skills and empathy in nursing education curricula.

“…In addition to the proposed curricular revisions discussed above, authors also stressed the importance of placing continued emphasis on therapeutic relationships and interpersonal communication in nursing education, as these are core values of nursing care that differentiate nursing from AIHTs [ 13 ].

Finally, some articles simply presented a broad discussion of AIHTs and their potential influences on nursing education with no mention of specific examples [5,6,[8][9][10]13,29,[48][49][50][51].…”

“…As emerging AIHTs modify health practices, health professionals will need to adapt their current ways of practicing to operationalize these technological advances [ 13 ]. Therefore, it is important for nurses to understand how AIHTs can be integrated into the conceptual foundation of nursing practice as they cocreate new models, frameworks, and theories that may be required to support the emerging technologies.…”

“…Para tanto, será necessário que a classe profissional respectiva reconheça seu valor, agregue ativamente a tecnologia ao cuidado e redefina seu papel profissional, conforme os avanços, e tenha consciência das mudanças, assim como observar a movimentação enquanto profissão em meio à realidade. Para tanto, salienta-se a importância do relacionamento interpessoal, escuta ativa e, capacidade continua de aprendizado (Fernandes, Esteves, Teixeira, Gherardi-Donato, 2018).…”
