Introduction

In the event that the health authorities announce a new period of confinement due to the evolution of the health crisis caused by COVID-19, the teaching staff will promptly communicate how this may effect the teaching methodologies and activities as well as the assessment.


The information of the medical records of the patient is essential to monitor the patient's progress and to enable communication with other professionals involved in the patient's care. At the same time it can be used to objectify our nurse work as well as to assess results that can later be used for research, providing quality to future nursing interventions.

Since new technologies allow us to computerize data, future professionals should be able to capture the entire contents of the process of nursing care into platforms designed for such use without losing the essence of the message to transmit nor getting out of framework of the current legislation.
