Publisher's Synopsis
Digital technologies are transforming practices and structures in nursing care. The ethical implications of this transformation process are multifaceted, and are in part determined by the cross-sectoral organization of nursing care. Therefore, an interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral approach is needed in order to analyze the ethical aspects of digitalized nursing care. It is the aim of this volume to gather perspectives from ethics, history, medical informatics and engineering science, nursing science, and social sciences. Given the complexity of nursing care and digital technologies, this allows for a more holistic analysis of the ethical and social aspects of digitally enhanced nursing care.
