The system is designed by a multidisciplinary team of nurses, doctors, programmers and other hospital personnel. The software is designed to 1)facilitate effective communication between health professionals, 2)encourage data-based nursing decision-making, 3)standardize nursing care documentation, and 4)decrease the time nurses spend on clerical functions. Future plans for evaluation and expansion of the system are described. |
