Postcard from the future
Write according from a Canadian standpoint if possible.
For this assignment, we ask that you consider your nursing practice at a point in the future – say 5 or 10 years from now. What would the practice environment look like at that time in terms of information and communication technologies? Which of the information and communication technologies that you have explored in this course would you like to see in practice at that time and why?
In this short paper you should:
Identify an information and communication technology that you envision being used in the future. What is the technology and how will it be used?
Describe the impact to client care associated with the technology? How will it improve quality of care? Strengthen patient safety?
Discuss actions required for the successful integration of this technology into nursing practice. What education or training is required to use the technology correctly?
