    Abstract:
    Computer technology offers a solution to problems associated with paper-based health records. The purposes of this descriptive study were to identify the utilization of and support for computer technology in managing student health data and documenting school nurse practice. Findings from a sample of school nurse respondents to the Computer Technology and School Nursing Survey (CTSNS) indicated that of the 65% that used computers, nearly two-third used computers for three years or less. Although there was an increase in computer use when compared with an earlier study, more training, financial support, and research are needed for optimal utilization of computer technology.
