Summary
An overview of strategies for integration of iPads into a prelicensure undergraduate baccalaureate nursing program.
Abstract
Digital technology is becoming more prevalent in the nursing profession with the use of smartphones and tablets. Information portability allows nurses, as healthcare providers, the ability to access clinical data at the point of care and use this digital information to enhance patient care delivery. Students using mobile electronic devices in patient care delivery demonstrate greater confidence, improved time management and improved patient outcomes. With the integration of the electronic health record (EHR)across all healthcare settings, digital and information literacy are essential components of baccalaureate nursing education. This presentation aims to evaluate student engagement related to mobile health (mHealth) and digital technology, explore the use of digital technology in the academic learning environment, examine the role of digital technology in baccalaureate prelicensure nursing programs and inform recommendations for mHealth integration throughout nursing curricula.
