    Selecting a microcomputer system for home health-care (HHC) improves efficiency and accuracy. Proper system selection and implementation by hospital pharmacists enhance HHC service operations and patient care quality.

    Area of Science:

    • Health Informatics
    • Pharmaceutical Services
    • Home Health Care Technology

    Background:

    • Home health-care (HHC) services require organization, communication, and accurate record-keeping for quality patient care.
    • Microcomputer systems can enhance the efficiency and accuracy of HHC operations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline principles for selecting microcomputer systems for HHC services.
    • To identify potential applications of microcomputer systems in HHC.

    Main Methods:

    • System selection criteria include compatibility with existing hospital systems and user-friendliness.
    • Potential applications were identified through analysis of HHC operational needs.

    Main Results:

    • Microcomputer systems can improve record management, billing, and inventory control in HHC.
