title: The value of computer networks in nursing.
abstract: A number of computerised and networked clinical and administrative systems are currently being used in the NHS. Networks can be confined to a single area or may be part of a wide area network, such as the NHSNet. Computer networks used by nurses must address clinical needs and be relevant to patient care.
