What this blog is all about....

This blog will be used to explore the evolving role of science and technology in healthcare and nursing, with a focus on healthcare informatics. The purpose of my blog is to demonstrate how healthcare and the practice of nursing have been influenced by information technology in the past and present, as well as its implications for the future.

I welcome visitors to share technological, educational, and professional web sites of interest to this site in your posts.

All information shared on this site will be appropriately referenced.
