Why does the leap to using a smart phone to manage one’s life seem to much easier than using a purposefully designed tool as per recommendations of design to support better patient Care?

It’s not like pages in a book. It’s also not like your unformatted Microsoft Word document from 1998. Let that sink in. Accept it. Embrace it.

Sometimes the analogies that we use to try and help people connect the past and the present are not helpful. Sometimes the tools we use to teach new nurses are couched in outdated contexts that highlight our limited understanding.

Love,

Michelle D.
