Outline of Final Research Achievements

To develop the scale to measure the information and communication technology (ICT) skills of home visiting nurses and to examine the developed scale’s reliability and validity.We extracted three factors, namely, Factor 1 [Skills for appropriately storing and sending medical information], Factor 2 [Skills related to organizational security], and Factor 3 [Skills related to the setting of a valid password and its protection], and 14 items.
Next, two surveys were conducted to develop an educational program for visiting nurses. A seminar based on the program was conducted video on demand, which was viewed more than 100 times.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

開発した訪問看護に従事する看護師のICTスキルを測定する尺度は、活用することにより、訪問看護に従事する看護師のICTスキルの実態を把握し、現状の把握・分析に基づいた研修立案やICT機器開発の一助となる。また、複数の調査に基づいたセミナーを開催したことにより、訪問看護に従事する看護師や在宅ケアに従事する職員を対象に、ICTスキルの向上を目指す教育機会を提供することができた。看護師のICTスキルの向上は、訪問看護業務へのICT活用推進につながることが期待できると考える。
