Access to information has tripled in the last 5 years, and the average person's ability to use new knowledge is limited. Methods that support the organization and use of information are needed to facilitate access to this knowledge. To address this challenge within the authors' institution, a nursing portal was designed, implemented, and evaluated. The Technology Acceptance Model was used to guide this process. Staff nurses received education on the functions and use of the nursing portal. The nurses also completed an online survey about the ease of use and usefulness of the nursing portal. Nurses reported that the nursing portal facilitated timely retrieval of information and decision-making. Staff education has been a key component of the success of the nursing portal.
