Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to clarify problems with e-learning teaching materials and methods in relation to patient-nurse communication and patient assessment. Students showed high interest in the e-learning materials but evaluated the content of the materials as low. Before using the e-materials only 25 students (26%) were able to have an understanding attitude and communicate effectively and act appropriately in regards to patients' needs; after using e-learning 89 students (92.7%) were able to have an understanding attitude towards patients.
