Nurses unsure whether NHS can deliver EPRs Print E-mail
Over half of nurses do not believe or do not know whether the NHS can deliver an electronic patient record (EPR) in the foreseeable future, according to a new survey from the Royal College of Nursing (RCN).

The RCN survey, carried out online by Medix Intelligent Information, also found that familiar problems persist in relation to consultation about the development of electronic record ands access to computers at work.

The 2007 survey, the fourth year running the RCN has polled nurses on IT, shows two thirds of nurses reporting that they have not been consulted about the introduction of the new record or the information that will be entered on it. This figure is unchanged from a similar survey carried out in 2004, which found 63% had not been involved in the new system’s design or development.

The survey, with 2,600 respondents, also found almost two-thirds of nursing staff had not received any IT training within the last six months. Nearly half (45%) have to share a computer at work with more than five people and 16% of nurses say they share a computer with more than 20 people.
