Tele-nursing care based on Rozzano Locsin's theory of technological competency in breast cancer patients

Abstract

Breast cancer is among the most common malignant diseases in women, necessitating multidisciplinary approaches in its diagnosis, treatment, and care processes. Nursing care plays a critical role in meeting the physical, psychological, and social needs of patients. Nursing interventions, supported by individualized care plans, are pivotal for early diagnosis, treatment adherence, and enhancing quality of life. Technological advancements today are transforming both diagnostic and care processes in breast cancer management. Tele-nursing applications facilitate the monitoring of patients during their treatment, make education and counseling services more accessible, and ensure the continuity of care. These approaches support patients in receiving safe and effective care within their home environments, thereby reducing inequalities in access to healthcare services. Rozzano Locsin's theory of technological competency as caring in nursing emphasizes that nurses can enhance their capacity to provide care by using technology consciously and competently. According to the theory, nurses can improve patient safety and the quality of care by developing their skills in using technological tools. Tele-nursing initiatives exemplify the practical application of this theory; through remote monitoring systems, digital education platforms, and tele-consultations, nurses can offer patients effective, safe, and personalized care. This review summarizes current approaches in the literature by examining the importance of technology and tele-nursing applications in breast cancer care within the framework of a nursing theory. Nursing interventions based on technological competency enhance the quality of patient-centered care and provide a foundation for developing future strategies in breast cancer management.
