EfficienciesDiscussion: Impact of Nursing Informatics on Patient Outcomes & Care
EfficienciesIn 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.The Impact of Nursing Informatics on Patient Outcomes
and Patient Care EfficienciesReview 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.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.Use APA format and include a title
