The objective of this study was to examine RNs' experiences with health information technology (HIT) and their perceptions of the effect of this technology on quality of care and daily work. The adoption and use of HIT are expected to increase substantially over the next 5 years because of policy efforts at the federal and state levels. Given the size of the RN workforce and their critical role in healthcare delivery, their experiences with HIT could help adoption efforts. The method used was a nationally representative survey of 1500 nurses with a 56% response rate. Findings suggest wide variation in the availability of HIT functionality, with functions more likely available to hospital RNs. Overall, RNs perceived the effect of these technologies on quality of care and their daily work as positive. Ensuring that HIT systems are relevant to and usable for RNs will be a critical component in achieving the meaningful use of these systems.
