Wireless Cell Phones in Nursing

Published

Specializes in Antepartum, Labor & Delivery, PostPartum.

Hello,

I am currently in an online RN to BSN program and my course this semester is Nursing Informatics. I have a project to do reguarding the use of wireless telephones (cell phones) in nursing for such things as direct patient to nurse communication, nurse to physician and vice versa communication, etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have searched several databases and cannot seem to find all the things I am looking for? I would appreciate any help!!!

Thanks!!:nurse:
