Nursing Technology
In the nursing profession, communication technology is used through e-mails. In the hospital that I work in, we use e-mail to pass on information. On the medical floor we get the latest information from the whole hospital .It is called the "Monday Report" . It includes information that has changed that the whole hospital should know. The report includes information from all departments and any changes that will be happening in the future. We also use e-mail to get our unit base counsel meeting minute which includes; who was at the meeting and what topics were discussed. I find this way of communication useful in my job because, I only work part time and sometimes I'm not at work when new changes happen. The emails that come out tell me exactly what is changing. I feel this technology works well in the hospital setting.

What a great point you have! As a part-time employee myself, I agree with you that e-mail has become very important for communication, especially in a job with so much shift work!
E-mail is so vital these days it is hard to even imagine the work force without it. You brought up some really great points and your blog site is very easy to follow. I work at Peterborough Hospital and each patient has access above their bed to a television that has not only T.V. but internet also. The goal is to eventually have the nurses use the patients bed side internet to do documentation and medication administration. Great topic! Lisa
Your blog page looks great! I agree that email is so important in our daily lives. We use it all the time at work to keep in touch with each other and to keep up on whats going on around the hospital. Lindsey has a great point that with us all working shift work and on different units email helps us communicate with each other.
