The advantage of using information technology for patient education includes:
 
  1. The ability to track the number of times you have given the patient the same instructions regarding their medication
  2. Standardized and individualized patient education that is simultaneously recorded into the patient record
  3. Easy access to private patient information specific to populations with a similar diagnosis
  4. The ability to download and interpret patient information in multiple languages, easily and accurately

Question 2

One barrier to use of the Internet for both prescribing and for patient teaching is:
 
  1. Lack of free public access to the Internet
  2. Age, with older adults rarely understanding how to use a computer
  3. Web pages and hyperlinks may change, be deleted, or be replaced
  4. Few Web sites with information about drugs are free
