A new paradigm for computer-based nursing information systems twenty care components.
This paper describes a new paradigm for computer-based nursing information systems. Twenty Care Components provide a means for coding, classifying, and statistically analyzing nursing taxonomies. They provide the structure for documenting the nursing process using a holistic approach. They can be used to assess, document, cost, evaluate, as well as link the nursing process phases. The components are classes and can be used to compare nursing care across health care settings, nationally and internationally. They make it possible for nurses around the world to communicate on-line and interact with each other.
