Patient education: an innovative computer approach.
Patient teaching has always been a part of quality nursing care. It is now more important than ever in order to ensure quality care and safety after discharge from the hospital. Nursing managers must develop cost-effective strategies for patient education in the current atmosphere of cost-containment and constant changes in health care. One method of accomplishing this is to utilize a hospital computer system to provide teaching materials and a documentation tool.
