OUTLINE
Mobile computing has the power to make nursing
practice safer, more efficient, evidence informed,
and of a higher quality. (Patillo et al., 2007; Thede &
Sewell, 2010; Thompson, 2005)
• Access at point of care is becoming an accepted standard in current healthcare environment (Kuiper, 2010)
• Technology integration is significant element of education (Educause, 2011; Hunt, 2002; Tooey & Mayo, 2003, Wali et al., 2008; )
• Today’s student expects immediacy, engagement and internet access (Arhin & Cormier, 2007; Skiba, 2005; White et al., 2005)
• Current healthcare environment is increasingly complex (Adler, 2007; Doran, 2009; Goldsworthy et al., 2006)
• Necessary for nurses to integrate increasingly large amount of info into decision making processes (Doran et al., 2010; Farrell et al., 2007)
• Expected competency for nursing grads (CASN, 2012; CNA, 2012; Kuiper, 2010)

BCIT Mobile Technologies Integration Process
Healthcare apps:• Clinicalc• Virtual body• Medspeak
“when I receive a patient with something I am not sure off, it's right at the tip of my hands to quickly get the answers. Even when patients and families are asking me a question and no one is around to help me right away I can figure it out on my own. Makes me more independent as well.” A big advantage is that I can access 'to the minute" information, on any subject, from any where in the world. I am up to date with the most current news and information related to healthcare, and all the information I need fits in my pocket.
However, if one doesn't know how to differentiate between websites that are reliable resources and those that are not, there is a risk that the information one is looking up is inaccurate.
I would be able to look up any medical terms or diagnoses that I'm not familiar with and access documents like CRNBC standards and BCIT policies
BCIT Nursing Student Comments
“Great potential uses - no longer need to carry textbooks, instant access to drug references, diagrams for patient education, sharing pertinent websites, quick communication both in and out of clinical. Barriers - perception of personal use when using device in clinical, not fully accepted for nursing - medicine not a problem, staff nurses not using/scared of technology discourage use.”
BCIT Nursing Faculty Comment
“Potential uses: -show photos of instruments used at clinical -show youtube images/videos –log onto internet to verify information -use the recording feature to record a quick lesson so students can review whenever they like Challenges: -requires data and not all faculty have data (or enough) data on phone -screen may not be big enough to show more than 2 students at a time”
Benefits Challenges• No heavy outdated textbooks• No need to access ward
computer• Real time efficient access to
information• Patient teaching• Translation tools• Peer-reviewed information• Improved confidence, less
anziety
• Perception of staff• Perceived perception of
patients• Digital Divide• Confidentiality• Effect on critical thinking• Screen size for sharing
Themes from BCIT 2012/2013 student/faculty qualitative surveys
Benefits: Increased feelings of student:
• self-efficacy
• confidence
• productivity
• research ability (Bauldoff et al., 2008; Doran et al., 2010; Goldsworthy, 2006; White et al., 2005)
• Decreased med errors (Greenfield, 2007)
• Decreased stress/anxiety (Jamieson et al., 2009)
• Evidence based, current decision support in real time (Farrell & Rose, 2008; Fisher & Koren, 2007)
• Interprofessional collaboration (Davenport, 2004; Farrell & Rose, 2008)
• Patient education
Challenges:
• Cost (Kuiper, 2010; Scollin et al., 2006; Zurmehly, 2010)
• Privacy & confidentiality (Adler, 2007; Altmann & Brady, 2005)
• Infection control (Bauldoff et al., 2008; Goldblatt et al., 2007)
• Time taken to become familiar with device use (Huffstutler et al., 2002)
• Touch vs. Tech (Rosenthal, 2003)
• Patient perception (Lee, 2007)
• Limited battery power (George & Davidson, 2005; Rosenthal, 2003)
• Tech support (Scollin et al., 2006; Zurmehly, 2010)
• Evaluate critical thinking and clinical judgment
Current and Future Plans
Goal of Informatics is:
And not:
