Technology is an important component of the health care field because doctors, nurses and medical specialists use technology in the diagnosis and treatment of health problems.
As health care organizations adopt information technology to improve quality and patient safety, reduce errors, increase efficiency, decrease time-consuming and redundant paperwork, and enhance communication, they’re finding that IT can significantly impact nursing work flow.

Today, we can say that technology really has a big impact on Nursing. This is apparent through the improvements on the four nursing areas. First in line is the Nursing Practice where EHR is being used for assessing problems, documenting care, tracking the care process and measuring the outcomes. Thus, the electronic version of nursing practice has revolutionized and transformed nursing practice.

Second, the Nursing Administration in hospitals has also changed with the introduction of the computer that clinks nursing departments together. Most policy and procedure manuals are assessed and retrieved by computer. The Internet is being used by nurses to access digital libraries, online resources, and research protocols at the bedside.
