Answer preview
Globalization has revolutionized many industries, including the business and health sectors. It has presented many opportunities and threats that affect the everyday lives of different groups globally. I think that communication is one of the essential features of globalization. Since the onset of globalization, information exchange has played a crucial role in advancing interactions between people of different geographical backgrounds. According to Zeibote, Volkova & Todorov (2019), communication as a feature in globalization has fostered education, trade, relationships, cultural exchange, and conflict resolution. In health, communication has led to an exchange of useful technological ideas that have formed foundations for better health practices and improved patient outcomes. For instance, the widespread use of electronic health records among developed nations trickling down to developing and underdeveloped countries. Secondly, mobility has equally contributed to promoting globalization. The easier movement of people, products, and ideas across the globe has improved many sectors including, health. In health, mobility has led to the transfer of technologies and the workforce. For example, the US hires nurses from other countries to compensate for their nursing workforce shortage
