Nurse informaticists collaborate regularly with other specialists to ensure appropriate data is available to make decisions and care for patients. This discussion reflects on experiences with how nurse informaticists interact with other professionals and proposes strategies to improve these interactions. The continued evolution of nursing informatics and new technologies may impact professional interactions by enhancing efficiency and improving patient outcomes through improved processes and identifying at-risk patients.
1. 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.Resources for assignment Wang, Y. Kung, L., & Byrd, T. A. (2018). Big data

observations about how nurse informaticists and/or data or technology specialists interact
with other professionals within your healthcare organization. Suggest at least one strategy
on how these interactions might be improved. Be specific and provide examples. Then,
explain the impact you believe the continued evolution of nursing informatics as a specialty
and/or the continued emergence of new technologies might have on professional
interactions.DUE 09/11/2019 BY 8AM part 2 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
2. 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.DUE 9/13/2019 8AM
