Nursing informatics: unveiling the computer use by nurses
Study conducted with the objective of understanding the assistant nurses' perception of a philanthropic institution about the computer use at work. The data collection happened in January 2013, through interviews with 12 nurses who answered the question: tell me about the computer use at your work. The data were treated using the content analysis technique, in which emerged the following theme categories and subthemes: Realizing positive aspects on computer use (nine subthemes); Realizing negative aspects on computer use (four subthemes); Suggesting actions to improve computer use (six subthemes); and Evaluating the computerization at work (three sub-themes). It was possible to conclude that the nurses have the perception that the computer use is related to the easily; the agility and practicality in development of professional activities; but there are technical and operational aspects that still need to be improved.
