“…1 Technological advances have made it easier for nurses to access data to manage patient electronic health records (EHRs) and provide care through e-medicine and telehealth platforms. 2 New developments in healthcare technology occur at warp speed and are changing the manner that nursing is practiced as policies and regulations require hospitals to implement advanced capabilities using EHRs. 3,4 Organizations are increasingly adopting technology to optimize workflow and improve care quality.…”

The purposes of this study are to provide insight into the factors identified as benefits and drawbacks of technology use by nurses and obtain suggestions on improving technology, based on challenges identified to improve patient outcomes. Holden's extended technology acceptance model was used to describe nurses' perception of technology use in practice. A descriptive design and thematic analysis were used to evaluate participants' logged reflections of their experiences and suggestions for improvements of health information technology. Findings indicate that nurses' experiences and perceptions regarding the use of various types of technology (electronic health records, large databases, crowdsourcing, biosurveillance) were positive. New subdomains emerged for job performance and efficiency, usefulness for public health, contribution to nursing science, and better communication. Identified challenges were insufficient training and support, lack of interoperability, risk of low-quality care from reliance on technology, increased cost, glitches, and alarm fatigue. Understanding nurses' perceptions of technology is anticipated to enhance care quality and possibly lead to improved outcomes. Nurses' perceptions of the use and acceptance of technology are important as their view is associated with performance and may directly influence clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. Thematic findings include recommendations from participants to improve patient outcomes and patient care.

Background: Rapid technology advancement highlights the importance for nursing education to prepare competent nurses in informatics. This study examined nursing informatics (NI) integration in an undergraduate curriculum and competency levels at a selected South African university. Method: A survey measured NI competencies among undergraduate nursing students, followed by curriculum mapping to assess the inclusion of NI content in the undergraduate curriculum. Participants completed the TANIC© nursing informatics questionnaire. Demographics and activities underwent descriptive analysis. Mean scores out of 4 indicated competency levels from novice to proficient. 95% confidence intervals were computed for computer literacy, clinical information management, and information literacy domains. Independent Samples Wilcoxon U Tests compared competency level differences by year per domain. Curriculum mapping assessed technology-related activities across the four-year programme. Results: Of 222 respondents (79.9% response rate), competence levels increased with year level, with computer literacy scoring highest (mean 3.33, ±0.48), nearing proficient levels, followed by information literacy (mean 2.81, ±0.68), falling within a comfortable competency range, and clinical information management, (mean 2.73, ±0.77) indicating advanced beginner competency. Curriculum mapping revealed the absence of information management. Conclusion: A need exist to increase NI integration in the curriculum, and better equip nurse educators toprepare students for technologically infused healthcare environments.
