How Computing Will Help Me as a Nursing Student

Question: How do you think computing will be important for you as a nursing student, and later as a professional? Provide your overall impression of the researchers views on computing in healthcare system. Answer: It was seen in the report that the nurses in Australia do not have much access to the computing system. But they recognize the benefits of the usage of the computing system in the workplace. As a nursing student I will need the computers to help me to prepare for the college coursework and also to take notes. Moreover it will help me in the online teaching, and the computer based learning systems (Hegney, Buikstra and Eley, 2007). The computing system will help me learn the basics of nursing before going to the actual field. I will be able to share the information with my professors, peers and professionals. The hospitals now-a-days uses a computer program to impart teachings to the patients about the various diseases and disease management. The physicians also prescribe the treatments and medications on the computers (Improving Technological Competency in Nursing Students, 2015). The nurses use those for the care of the patients. The nurses may also order the medicines and check the supplies of the medicines. The nurses also use computers to communicate with the physicians about the care of the patients. Moreover the nurses use the computers to keep a record of the documents of the patients health, tests, and routine care. The computing technology can be used in mobile phones, or portable tablets that the nurses carry along with the clip board and the other paper documents. Thus the computing system will help me in getting a thorough knowledge of the coursework since it will help me in getting notes and learn about the ways as to how it will be beneficial in the practical field (Biglari, 2015). The knowledge that I will gain by using the computing system will help me in my professional work. Thus the computing systems need to be incorporated in the education system of nursing.
