Education and Information for Practicing School Nurses: Which Technology-Supported Resources Meet Their Needs?
Anderson, Lori S.; Enge, Karmin J.
Journal of School Nursing, v28 n5 p358-369 Oct 2012
School nurses care for children with a variety of health-related conditions and they need information about managing these conditions, which is accessible, current, and useful. The goal of this literature review was to gather and synthesize information on technology-supported resources and to determine which met the educational needs of school nurses. Successful online educational programs were interactive and self-directed. The most common barriers were lack of time to find educational information, lack of knowledge about computers, technology, the Internet and specific programs, and lack of administrative support from school officials to use technology to access information and evidence for practice. Recommendations for successful use of technology to meet practicing school nurse's educational needs are offered. (Contains 1 table.)
