Digital Twins as a Tool for Personalizing Nursing Care in the Age of Technology

Today, the use of digital technologies is an inseparable part of healthcare. The emergence of digital twin technology represents a fundamental shift in the delivery of healthcare, with profound implications for nursing care as well. The use of this technology comes with benefits that can herald an improvement in the quality of nursing care, although the practical application of this approach is also accompanied by challenges and limitations. It can be said that digital twin technology has significant potential to enhance nursing care through personalized, predictive, and preventive patient management. It optimizes clinical operations and supports education and collaboration among healthcare professionals. Through accurate virtual models of patients and care environments, nurses can provide more precise, efficient, and comprehensive care tailored to individual and population needs. As these solutions mature, digital twins are poised to become an integral part of nursing practice, improving patient outcomes, healthcare system performance, and professional development, which reflects a new era of digitally empowered nursing care.
