Understanding the Internet and World Wide Web.
If home care providers have computers and Internet connections at work or home, they can access the latest information regarding their clients' diseases, communicate with colleagues by electronic mail (E-mail), access government health care policies affecting home care, and much more. The Internet's increased popularity and utilization are a result of high-speed, high-capacity personal computers and related equipment and the development of easy-to-use graphics-intensive software.
