Webinar: Cognitive offloading for nurses

Improving focus and reducing mental load

This topic matters to all of us. Why? Because every role in nursing demands critical thinking, constant multi-tasking and fast decisions. And that requires a lot of cognitive bandwidth. In this webinar we’ll talk about the different types of cognitive load and how cognitive overload impacts our performance, safety and overall wellbeing. 

The good news is we’re not powerless. Through tools and technology, preparation and processes, we can reduce that cognitive load and make room for better clinical thinking, stronger teamwork, healthier nurses and really improve care. This free on-demand webinar was presented by Nurse.com.

• The types of cognitive load. 
• How to recognize effects of cognitive overload. 
• The impact of cognitive burden in nursing. 
• Cognitive offloading in clinical practice. 
• How to identify tools and technologies that support offloading.
