摘要:

The contractual process for the purchase of a health-care facility information system is a major endeavor for today's informatics practitioners as more facilities purchase information solutions from vendors rather than producing proprietary systems. The goal of the contractual process is not simply to protect either party from future litigation but to produce a clearly understood document that outlines the duties and responsibilities of both the organization and the vendor. This document should anticipate and set forth contingencies for problems that may arise in the future. Guidelines are offered to assist nurses who are members of the acquisition team better understand the contract review process.

摘要:

The growth of information technology systems associated with the organizational reforms of the British Health Service has given rise to a need to understand nurses' attitudes toward computerization. Several studies in the United States have identified various factors that influence nurses' computer-related attitudes but such studies in the United Kingdom are rare. This study sampled 208 nurses in a general hospital of approximately 500 beds, and measured their computer-related attitudes using Strange and Brodt's questionnaire. Demographic data specifically related to the UK scene also were collected.Although nurses' computer-related attitudes generally were positive, significant differences were found in relation to age, length of service as a trained nurse, job title, type of nursing unit, and length of service at the study hospital. Brodt and Strange also found significant differences related to length of time as a trained nurse and nursing unit, but not for length of service or age. Discussion of the study findings suggests that the UK scene is not dissimilar to that in the United States. However, comparison of findings with Brodt and Stronge's work raises some questions about trends in nurses' computer-related attitudes and about the usefulness of computer technology to professional nursing practices.

摘要:

The information for this article was collected at the Department of Veterans Affairs Domiciliary in White City, Oregon. The intent is to show the transition from a paper record to an entirely computerized patient record system and to show the impact on nursing practice at the Domiciliary. Clinicians using the paperless record have verbalized positive experiences and derived much benefit because of easier and quicker access to patient records, thereby allowing more time for direct patient care.
