Will the future advanced technology result in the decrease of nurses needed?

[di_cassano]

i was reading a magazine stating one of the reasons that result in the large need of nurses is the out-of-date technology, in the future, the newly state-of-art technology will reduce the number of nurses needed. is it possible?

Nope ,
Technology is used for diagnostics . . .
BUT it Never actually generate care for the sick .
Unless you consider chemo care and people need more nurses when getting chemo than if they didn't get it !
And since more of the population is getting older .
And more of the younger populations is getting obese,
You are going to need more and more nurses .
