Ninewells Hospital introduces computers on wheels (“COWs”) for staff
Computers moove with the times at Ninewells Hospital
Two COWs caused quite a “steer” when they appeared on a Ninewells Hospital ward on Tuesday.
Staff nurse Jemma Williamson wheels one of the new computers into a bay on ward 22.

The computers on wheels (COWs) will allow medical staff to check laboratory results and X-rays at patients’ bedsides and add notes to medical records.
The first two COWs were introduced to ward 22, the hospital’s renal unit, but a whole herd will be in place soon.
