摘要
The aim of this study was to determine how a nursing information system improves patient safety and nursing care quality in a hospital in Taiwan. Nurses and patients were surveyed by questionnaire and data retrieval before and after the implementation of NIS. Physiologic values were easier to read and interpret; less time to complete electronic records; reduction of errors in drug administration, blood drawing and transportation of specimens with bar codes; improvement in satisfaction with electronic shift handover; reduction in nursing turnover; patient satisfaction improved.
