Why wouldn’t we want to put that on an electronic medical record that will reduce error rates, reduce our long-term costs of healthcare, and create jobs right now?”

- 6. “Nursing informatics is a specialty that integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to manage and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom into nursing practice. Nursing informatics facilitates the integration of data, information, knowledge and wisdom to support patients, nurses, and other providers in their decision making in all roles and settings. This support is accomplished through the use of information structures, information processes, and information technology”…… American Nursing Association, 2008

Notas do Editor
- This presentation will discuss the Infrastructure of an Informatics department as it applies to nursing and healthcare in today’s rapidly changing technological world.
- To many, the use of EMR’s and computers in healthcare may seem to be a recent development in the ever changing and evolving world of technology and healthcare. However it has actually been in use for almost 4 decades. Early use of computer systems to support patient care occurred in the 1960’s. Experiments were underway in the use of electronic medical records systems that collected data directly from clinicians in inpatient and outpatient settings by the end of that decade. Still, adapting computing technology and electronic communications into healthcare has progressed at a snails pace when compared to other venues and industries. The slow rate of adoption of information technology into healthcare has even been surpassed by the use of modern smart phones and their capabilities.For the first time since this initial use in the 1960’s, a U.S. President has called for the sole use of EMR’s within a decades time frame, and this administration has created the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology in the Office of the Secretary of Health and Human Services as just one part of the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
- Nurses, we’ve all been there. This is a typical start of shift in a typical day, no matter what inpatient unit you work, and it continues throughout the shift, even when you haven’t had a lunch break or snuck to the bathroom. Unlike the average everyday 9-5 jobs, we have the daunting task of caring for people, often at their worst. We are entrusted with the most precious thing available to an individual, their very life. We must be organized and flexible, complete tasks with constant interruptions, adapt to any situation imaginable and unimaginable at a moments notice, we must do our jobs with not just our minds, but our bodies and souls. Who brought up this brilliant idea of throwing computers into the mix in healthcare? Who would do that to us? AS if we have time for that!!!!
- Nurses are intelligent professionals with a very unique specialty who are constantly learning and adapting. Sometimes, however, this causes us to put on blinders, and we are resistant to integrating knowledge from other fields outside of health and medicine. We utilize information continuously to do our jobs. We learn about the body and the care of patients in nursing school….thereby taking in information. We apply what we have learned in practice. We gather information from patients to render care. We record this information through charting, and relay this information in communication with other nurses, physician, pharmacies, families, etc. This processing of information is the basis of Informatics. What we must realize is that technology is being incorporated into every aspect of our lives, and without it, we will be left behind. Those who continue to resist the change will have no choice but to be phased out of healthcare, because it is here to stay……
- Various sources provide various definitions of the term INFORMATICS. It can change based on the field it in which it is being applied. Merriam Webster online and Business Dictionary online are obviously reference sources with a more generic definition. The Indiana University Purdue University definition comes from their school website section describing their Masters of Science in Informatics programs. Probably the most appropriate definition is that as described by William Hersh….” The discipline…..”
- Over the years, the definition of Nursing Informatics has undergone many changes, to adapt to the ever changing role of technology and advancements in the scope of nursing practices has evolved. The ANA breaks down the various types of definitions into 3 categories, 1.) definitions with an IT focus, 2.) conceptually oriented definitions, and 3.) definitions that focus on roles. As nursing informatics gained respect and acceptance as a specialty, the role oriented definitions developed. The ANA’s definition of the field and its scope of practice has evolved as well, with this being it’s official definition as of 2008. As the specialty grows and advancements are made, the definition will continue to be modified and adapted to encompass the scope and depth of the field.
- There’s that word….INFRASTRUCTURE….again. But again, it’s not alone. As we are seeing, the common theme is an infrastructure is made up of many parts, from computers, to processes, to people.
- There are so many terms in utilized in Informatics. Some of them are interchangeable. It makes it very difficult to give one definition and description of the Infrastructure of an Informatics department. That is why they ALL come together to define and describe what it means.
- Additional Information for application of evidence to practice:Building Block 1: UTILIZING standardized terminologies and structures…. AEP: Standards fro representation of knowledge facilitate the application of decision support rules.Building Block 2: The use of digital sources of evidence.Building Block 3: The use of established data exchange standards…..AEP: Facilitate the delivery of tailored health-related messages based on patient-specific dataBuilding Block 4: AEP: Use decision analytic techniques to tailor evidence to specific patients.Building block 5: Establishing Informatics Competencies…..AEP: Perform critical analysis of evidence for its applicability to practice.
- We have learned that infrastructure supports the framework of a much larger superstructure. In this presentation, the superstructure can be considered a hospital or other healthcare organization. The infrastructure can be the employees and departments within the hospital or healthcare organization that through their work, contribute to the day to day function of their employer. A subcategory of the larger infrastructure would be the Informatics Infrastructure. The Informatics Infrastructure is comprised of and not limited to the components listed here. There is no one definition that encompasses the makeup and function of the informatics departments infrastructure.
