Discussion: Interaction Between Nurse Informaticists And Other Specialists

ASSIGNMENT: Of course, humans don’t fare too badly in this regard either. And healthcare is a great example. As specialists in the collection, access, and application of data, nurse informaticists collaborate with specialists on a regular basis to ensure that appropriate data is available to make decisions and take actions to ensure the general well-being of patients.

In this Discussion, you will reflect on your own observations of and/or experiences with informaticist collaboration. You will also propose strategies for how these collaborative experiences might be improved.

Review the Resources and reflect on the evolution of nursing informatics from a science to a nursing specialty.

Consider your experiences with nurse Informaticists or technology specialists within your healthcare organization.

Assignment: The Impact of Nursing Informatics on Patient Outcomes and Patient Care Efficiencies. 

In the Discussion for this module, you considered the interaction of nurse informaticists with other specialists to ensure successful care. How is that success determined?

Patient outcomes and the fulfillment of care goals is one of the major ways that healthcare success is measured. Measuring patient outcomes results in the generation of data that can be used to improve results. Nursing informatics can have a significant part in this process and can help to improve outcomes by improving processes, identifying at-risk patients, and enhancing efficiency.

To Prepare:

• Review      the concepts of technology application as presented in the Resources.
• Reflect      on how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence may help      fortify nursing informatics as a specialty by leading to increased impact      on patient outcomes or patient care efficiencies.

The Assignment: (4-5 pages)

In a 4- to 5-page project proposal written to the leadership of your healthcare organization, propose a nursing informatics project for your organization that you advocate to improve patient outcomes or patient-care efficiency. Your project proposal should include the following:

• Describe      the project you propose.
• Identify      the stakeholders impacted by this project.
• Explain      the patient outcome(s) or patient-care efficiencies this project is aimed      at improving and explain how this improvement would occur. Be specific and      provide examples.
• Identify      the technologies required to implement this project and explain why.
• Identify      the project team (by roles) and explain how you would incorporate the      nurse informaticist in the project team.
