Fast-forward now to the 21st century and what seemed dazzling once pales in comparison to now. The most important technological skill the 21st century nurse needs has less to do with learning how to work the latest technological marvel and more to do with adapting quickly to the obsolescence of it, always ready for the inevitable "what's new and what's next." The 21st century nurse is technologically proficient, computer literate, and Internet savvy. This nurse may not know how to manage every piece of technology he or she comes across, but is ready, willing and able to master it quickly, without thinking twice about it.


The age of information begun in the latter 20th century has broadened its impact in this new millennium in ways that could only be called revolutionary. Accessing and using information, the currency of these times, and staying connected to others through high-speed communication devices has forever changed the way we live and work. Those among you that find this revolting rather than revolutionary may be lost in a time warp that will marginalize your experiences and limit your involvement as the 21st century marches on.
