NR360 What Is Nursing Informatics? (graded, 50 points) Discuss ways that nursing informatics could be applied to all areas of professional nursing practice, including clinical practice, administrat... ion, education, and research. Provide examples of each. What do you see as the biggest significance of nursing informatics, and why? Based on my understanding of what i read from the lesson page, I learned that nursing informatics does not only involves informatics knowledge or nursing science but it also involves communication and management of information, computer science, skill, literacy, and wisdom. Nursing Informatics is the "science and practice (that) integrates nursing, its information and knowledge, with management of information and communication technologies to promotes the health of people, families, and communities worldwide" (IMIA Special Interest Group on Nursing Information, 2009). Nursing Informatics ensure that the actual reflection of all health care workers is to provide a patient centered care In clinical practice, a nurse may see a restless, shakiness and diaphoresis patient and perform accucheck on the patient because through her and knowledge, those are the signs of hypoglycemia. So the nurse performed a patient centered care through skill, literacy, and wisdom. In administration, I see it as the information science to manage and communicate patient data and information to the health care worker, patients and families in other to promote and protect patient health. This provides inter-professional work flow. Educational, nursing informatics revolves around literacy. For instance, as I am taking this class right now, it will give me the opportunity to learn my role, skills and development knowledge about what will be required of me as a nurse by the time I graduate. The research aspect of it will provide the concept of representative and standard to evidence based practice and publicize new knowledge into practice be it negative finding or positive finding. The main purpose is to provide a relevant evidence based information that relate both the health care worker and patients. What do you see as the biggest significance of nursing informatics, and why? What I see as the biggest significant of nursing informatics is the Patient. The reason is that, the patient is the center of care been provided. The health care worker should ensure that they all do their parts well and provide a patient-centered care without malpractice or not providing the needed information to patient and family member. Because, if any mistake is made in the computer data, it affect the patient health needs negatives. For instance if patient blood type is written incorrectly in the patient computer data, there is a possibility of harming the patient which might cause serious problem or death to the patient.
