Abstract:
Nursing information systems are becoming increasingly prevalent in our medical institutions. However, changes in the social environment and imbalances between the demands of caregivers and care recipients mean that current nursing information systems are inadequate in terms of quality and operational needs. This article was written to provide insights into opportunities to leverage technology to further promote care quality by applying a "data, information, knowledge, and wisdom" system development structure to develop intelligent technology products that equitably meet the needs of patients, caregivers, and nursing processes. Applied in clinical settings, these products should help satisfy patient needs and facilitate nursing work.
