A nursing student is doing clinicals at a hospital implementing a new computer system. Trying to generalize the information is key, since the student nurse plans to move after graduation. This is due to the fact that:
1. Each hospital will have its own system.
2. Facilities never use the same computer system.
3. Computer standards change routinely.
4. Students are not expected to know all the details of a computer system.
Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: While this is true it is not the primary reason generalization of information is a key focus.
Rationale 2: While this is true it is not the primary reason generalization of information is a key focus.
Rationale 3: All nurses must have a basic level of computer literacy in order to perform their jobs. Although facilities may utilize the same computer program, it will be customized to each individual facility. Students are expected to know the basic terminology and function of hospital or facility computer systems, but the science of computers changes so quickly that keeping an open mind about change is extremely important.
Rationale 4: This is not true since appropriate documentation of care is dependent upon having that knowledge.
