Computerized care plans help nurses achieve quality patient care.
Well-conceived patient care plans are a crucial component of high quality nursing care. Writing care plans, however, can often be a difficult and time-consuming task. Computerization can significantly enhance the speed, quality, comprehensiveness, and effectiveness of creating patient-specific care plans. The benefits to nursing administrators include more efficient use of nursing resources, more effective use of nursing skills and expertise, and improved patient management.
