Nursing students using academic electronic medical records (EMR) at least five times developed positive perceptions of EMRs as learning tools. Integrating EMRs into curricula is crucial for developing essential technology competencies in future nurses.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Health Informatics
- Medical Technology
Background:
- Nurse educators must integrate electronic medical records (EMRs) into curricula.
- Students require hands-on experience with electronic documentation and clinical information retrieval.
- Technology competency is essential for modern nursing practice.
Purpose of the Study:
- To provide nursing students with technology competency development experiences.
- To examine student perceptions of academic electronic medical records (EMRs) as educational tools.
Main Methods:
- Student participants engaged with an academic EMR system.
- Usage frequency was tracked to assess impact on perceptions.
- Qualitative and quantitative data were collected on student experiences.
Main Results:
- Students using EMRs at least five times reported positive perceptions.
- Increased EMR usage correlated with enhanced learning tool perception.
- Technology competency was positively influenced by EMR integration.
Conclusions:
- Regular use of EMRs fosters positive student perceptions.
