Computer Aided Instruction/Management of Nursing Protocols Continuing Education and Patient Education for Remote Delivery

摘要

Utilization of computer networks to provide instruction for health care providers and patients can increase knowledge for the participants and reduce the disadvantages of current methods of instruction, i.e., sporadic, inconsistent, hurried instruction patterns. Nursing protocols and nursing and patient education modules were developed as components of KARENET (Kellogg Affiliated Remote Environments Network), linking rural Morton, Texas, and the Health Sciences Center at Lubbock. Both health care providers and patient participants benefit from utilization of knowledge provided by the methodology of CAI/CMI.
