Multimedia in nursing and patient education.
Multimedia education or computer-based instruction is currently being used in both patient and nursing education for staff development, continuing education, general health information, and informed consent. It can be used to teach content, skills, and concepts, as well as to simulate situations. Multimedia may be incorporated as a part of other hospital systems to provide individualized patient education by using actual patient data. Multimedia as an instructional strategy has some definite advantages and disadvantages that can affect integration and use. It will be used more and more in the health care environment to provide consistent, accurate information to nurses and patients.
