本文描述了护士的经验，作为一个大型临床试验的一部分，他们通过安装计算机（如果需要）并连接到患者教育网站，将互联网带入老年人的家中。这些患者中的大多数以前没有使用过互联网，必要时甚至教授了基本的计算机技能。由于越来越多地使用互联网在病人的教育，评估和家庭监测，护士在各种角色目前与病人连接，以监测他们的进展，教有关药物，并回答有关预约和治疗的问题。因此，护士发现自己扮演的技术管理人员的角色，为病人与家庭为基础的互联网连接。本文以协议、检查表和患者用户指南的形式提供了计算机安装和培训的分步过程。通过遵循这些程序，护士可以安装计算机，安排互联网接入，教学和连接到他们的病人，并准备安装未来几代的技术设备。
This article describes the experiences of nurses who, as part of a large clinical trial, brought the Internet into older adults' homes by installing a computer, if needed, and connecting to a patient education Web site. Most of these patients had not previously used the Internet and were taught even basic computer skills when necessary. Because of increasing use of the Internet in patient education, assessment, and home monitoring, nurses in various roles currently connect with patients to monitor their progress, teach about medications, and answer questions about appointments and treatments. Thus, nurses find themselves playing the role of technology managers for patients with home-based Internet connections. This article provides step-by-step procedures for computer installation and training in the form of protocols, checklists, and patient user guides. By following these procedures, nurses can install computers, arrange Internet access, teach and connect to their patients, and prepare themselves to install future generations of technological devices.
