Conclusion: CDSSs used by RNs and NAs in nursing homes are still largely unexplored. A CDSS can be incorporated into the EHR to increase the meaningful use of these computerized systems in nursing home care. The effects of CDSS on healthcare provider workflow, clinical decision making and communication about preventive measures in nursing home practice still need further exploration. Based on results from our study, recommendations would be to increase both sample size and the number of RNs and NAs who participate in CDSS education programs.
