About this publication
As healthcare transitions with digitisation and technology, nurses need to be prepared to embrace the changes and meet the challenges of the future. Health Information Systems assists nurses in familiarising themselves with the technological advances that impact nursing, including the use of electronic health records (EHRs) as healthcare facilities move towards ‘paperless’ systems of record-keeping. In a user-friendly and accessible manner, the book provides guidance to educators and managers as they become more reliant on technology on a day-to- day basis.
