Abstrakt:	Licensed practical nurses (LPNs) are the second largest occupational group and the largest group in the social and healthcare sector in Finland, and they have an extensive working environment. Like other health and social care professionals, LPNs also use health information systems (HIS) and client information systems (CIS) in their daily work. The aim of this study was to describe LPNs' perceptions of the benefits of information systems in daily patient care. The information systems include the main HIS or CIS that the respondents mainly use in their work. The data comprised 3 866 LPNs' responses were collected via an online survey in 2022. Most of the LPNs work in social care using the Lifecare system. ESKO is used in public health care and was rated as the most popular system that LPNs use regarding the benefits of information systems. Highly experienced LPNs seem to rate the benefits of information systems higher than LPNs who have just started working.
