For Nurse Educators:
MedSheet is an excellent example
of a database in action... a demonstration of the practical
advantages of a database over other types of related patient care
software programs.
Classroom database examples are often phone, employee
or bibliography lists. These examples are limited in that they don't
really differentiate a database from a spreadsheet of even a word
processor. MedSheet enables you to go well beyond these simple examples.
With MedSheet you'll actually demonstrate the
advantages of database use versus other types of programs. MedSheet
teaches a powerful lesson, on your students will remember and carry
with them.
Or documentation details how the MedSheet program
works and offers practical examples describing relational database
theory - examples pertinent to nursing students. Reference Point also
includes examples of screen design elements and applies these
examples to health care related data.
Using MedSheet, Nurse Educators will -
-
Create an opportunity for
nursing students to develop and individualize patient teaching materials.
-
Give students practical
examples of relational databases.
-
Stimulate participation and
interest by offering students a way to help patients with genuinely
useful handouts.
-
Demonstrate how computers
assist nurses to work more efficiently.
-
Define screen design
elements using health care related examples.
-
Encourage students to
participate and offer input into the evolution of MedSheet via
Reference Point Software's on-line discussion group.
