"There's an app for that" bringing nursing education to the bedside

Although many educators may not consider themselves technologically savvy, the reality is that the use of technology in nursing education is sharply rising and we must meet the needs of the adult learner. Now more than ever, learners utilize technology for their daily lives and actually prefer this form of education. The use of iPads can greatly impact nursing education which not only engages the staff, but provides an environment that is conducive to learning, is cost effective, and fun. iPads really do have an app for that!
