Abstract
Norway's regional teaching hospitals are working together on a project to develop an interdisciplinary electronic patient record (EPR). This paper presents the results of a project to develop nursing documentation as part of an integrated EPR to improve the quality and continuity of patient care. The project used a consensus process as a working norm. The most important result is that the five hospitals have agreed on a framework for nursing documentation, and on the main components that need to be implemented in the electronic patient record.Keywords
