Technical activity automatically eliminates every nontechnical activity or transforms it into technical activity. This does not mean, however, that there is any conscious effort or directive will. Jacques Ellul

Technology in Hospitals
Over the past month now I have been in and out of hospitals for some family misfortunes. Family members are fine now, but every time I went to the hospital I could not believe how much testing and diagnosing is done by using technological devices. I have not been in a hospital and noticed these things for about five years now and I could not be live all the technology in use. There were of course all of your devices like CT machines MRI, X -Ray, EEG, and etc.... They even have monitors that monitor your heart rate , blood pressure, pulse oxygen level in lungs and the whole nine yards. While being in the hospital I noticed that technology is doing a vast majority of the work rather than nurses and doctors. And the medical field seems to be relying on these devices quit heavily. I would like to know how this will effect nursing and doctor jobs in the future.
