Computers, Informatics, Nursing : CIN 2011 March
Expanding use of complex patient information management systems and communication technology in healthcare organizations requires nurses to possess core competencies that until recently were not considered as integral to practice as those of a strictly clinical nature. Organizational changes necessary to formally integrate informatics competencies into nursing practice require strong partnerships among facility nursing leaders, educators, and informaticists.
