number of hospitalized patients are not respected; there is a large outflow of staff abroad and to
the private sector; there is a large number of requalified nurses who need time to acquire the
necessary skills. All this affects quality, efficiency, and work culture. Initially, there was a lot
of resistance to accepting IT in healthcare, but over time, the benefits became apparent when
paper documentation was replaced with electronic records. Electronic records include: patient
admission list, nursing health assessment, healthcare plan, healthcare record, patient discharge/
discharge letter, and review of healthcare achieved. Information literacy facilitates
communication among various healthcare professionals responsible for patient healthcare.
Information is immediately available to all healthcare workers regardless of physical distance.
Information literacy facilitates nurses in achieving tasks and goals for mandatory continuous
medical education and evidence-based research. Evidence-based nursing methodology
combines information retrieval, critical thinking, information summarization, information
application in daily practice, and evaluation. Medical education is increasingly conducted using
various platforms and tools. We all witnessed its implementation during the COVID-19
pandemic, when school lectures were conducted via computers, as well as continuous medical
education programs.

The degree of acceptance of basic IT concepts and reluctance to use and introduce IT into
nursing work depend on age, gender, computer knowledge, years of work experience, and job
position. According to research and based on the opinions obtained from nurses regarding the
following parameters: the influence of computers on the efficiency of work processes, nurses'
opinions on computer capabilities, willingness to use computers, data security entered into the
computer—whether correctly entered and protected. E-learning requires the development of
models and the selection of an e-learning platform, adapting multimedia teaching modules,
planning training actions, defining training paths, identifying levels of teaching and
technological complexity of tool support, sharing organizational and methodological models,
training trainers, administering, monitoring activity progress, and measuring training
effectiveness.

Tools that can be used to implement quality e-learning include: • E-mail enables course
registration, educational materials can be sent via email, and the participant can send completed
questionnaires, tests, etc. • Discussion groups, forums are formed on the internet, and within
them, a question or comment can be sent, an answer received, or questions and answers read
from other students. • Chat rooms - Chat will allow the mentor, teacher, or educator to ask
questions in real-time, discuss with other students or course participants. • Video streaming can
provide that the entire lecture or exercise session can be monitored over the internet, when it
comes copious.

Video conferencing allows educators to present their lectures via a camera mounted on a
computer and potentially receive questions. • Websites where all learning materials are posted
enable students to educate themselves according to their own obligations, at times convenient
to them. • Distance learning is planned learning that occurs remotely from the educator and as
a result, requires special techniques, instructional design, special teaching techniques, and
special communication methods. • Medical education through simulation includes:Sim man is
a robot doll that has functions such as breathing, pulse, arterial blood pressure, pupil size, skin
color, etc., all controlled by a computer. Each function responds to the application of drugs or
procedures.

changes caused by altering one variable to all other physiological variables. The program can
