title: Building round the ward.
abstract: This month's special feature is devoted to computers and nursing. We look at the possibilities and pitfalls in selecting a nursing management system, ask whether senior nurses are making the most of resource management and quality assurance programmes, and find promising results from an experiment with handheld computers by community nurses.
