摘要：In order to establish and maintain a local health information infrastructure in the Denton, Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex area among long-term care facilities, Texas Woman's University conducted an exploratory information and technology audit to establish baseline data concerning electronic information access and use. While the information needs of health care professionals and consumers in various settings have been well documented, little research has been done specific to hospices, nursing homes, and long-term care facilities. The audit was designed to assess the current state of information technologies and information access within the target audience. Specifically, the project sought to determine if target institutions were equipped with Internet-connected workstations, if training was available regarding use of electronic information resources, and if support was provided concerning the information needs of health care consumers as well as health care professionals.
