This project will investigate the use of wireless handheld computers, in three acute care clinical units located at Southern Health and the Royal Women's Hospital, to determine the impact on patient safety and quality of care. There is a need for real time point-of-care access (and input) to patient information, nursing reference information, and drug information for nurses in Australian hospitals. This project aims to address this need by providing nurses with wireless handheld access to such resources. This project is extremely significant, as the outcomes will provide nurses, in Australia and overseas, a set of guidelines for managing wireless handheld computers in clinical units, to enhance patient safety and quality of care.

该项目将调查无线手持计算机的使用，在三个急性护理临床单位位于南方健康和皇家妇女医院，以确定对病人的安全和护理质量的影响。澳大利亚医院的护士需要真实的时间点护理访问（和输入）患者信息、护理参考信息和药物信息。该项目旨在通过为护士提供无线手持访问这些资源来满足这一需求。该项目意义重大，因为其成果将为澳大利亚和海外的护士提供一套在临床单位管理无线手持计算机的指南，以提高患者安全和护理质量。
