Week 1 Discussion
The Application of Data to Problem-Solving
In the modern era, there are few professions that do not to some extent rely on data.
Stockbrokers rely on market data to advise clients on financial matters.
Meteorologists rely on weather data to forecast weather conditions, while
realtors rely on data to advise on the purchase and sale of property. In these
and other cases, data not only helps solve problems, but adds to the
practitioner’s and the discipline’s body of knowledge.
Of course,
the nursing profession also relies heavily on data. The field of nursing
informatics aims to make sure nurses have access to the appropriate date to
solve healthcare problems, make decisions in the interest of patients, and add
to knowledge.
In this
Discussion, you will consider a scenario that would benefit from access to data
and how such access could facilitate both problem-solving and knowledge
formation.

Week 3 Discussion
Interaction
Between Nurse Informaticists and Other Specialists
Nature
offers many examples of specialization and collaboration. Ant colonies and bee
hives are but two examples of nature’s sophisticated organizations. Each
thrives because their members specialize by tasks, divide labor, and
collaborate to ensure food, safety, and general well-being of the colony or
hive.
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.

Week 4 Discussion
Big Data
Risks and Rewards
When you
wake in the morning, you may reach for your cell phone to reply to a few text
or email messages that you missed overnight. On your drive to work, you may
stop to refuel your car. Upon your arrival, you might swipe a key card at the
door to gain entrance to the facility. And before finally reaching your
workstation, you may stop by the cafeteria to purchase a coffee.
From the
moment you wake, you are in fact a data-generation machine. Each use of your
phone, every transaction you make using a debit or credit card, even your
entrance to your place of work, creates data. It begs the question: How much
data do you generate each day? Many studies have been conducted on this, and
the numbers are staggering: Estimates suggest that nearly 1 million bytes of
data are generated every second for every person on earth.
As the
volume of data increases, information professionals have looked for ways to use
big data—large, complex sets of data that require specialized approaches to use
effectively. Big data has the potential for significant rewards—and significant
risks—to healthcare. In this Discussion, you will consider these risks and
rewards.

Week 6 Discussion
Healthcare
Information Technology Trends
Throughout
history, technological advancements have appeared for one purpose before
finding applications elsewhere that lead to spikes in its usage and
development. The internet, for example, was originally developed to share
research before becoming a staple of work and entertainment. But technology—new
and repurposed—will undoubtedly continue to be a driver of healthcare
information. Informaticists often stay tuned to trends to monitor what the next
new technology will be or how the next new idea for applying existing
technology can benefit outcomes.
In this
Discussion, you will reflect on your healthcare organization’s use of
technology and offer a technology trend you observe in your environment.

Week 9 Discussion
The
Inclusion of Nurses in the Systems Development Life Cycle
In the
media introduction to this module, it was suggested that you as a nurse have an
important role in the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC). With a focus on
patient care and outcomes, nurses may not always see themselves as contributors
to the development of new systems. However, as you may have observed in your
own experience, exclusion of nurse contributions when implementing systems can
have dire consequences.
In this
Discussion, you will consider the role you might play in systems development
and the ramifications of not being an active participant in systems
development.

Week 2 Assignment
Assignment:
The Nurse Leader as Knowledge Worker
The term
“knowledge worker” was first coined by management consultant and author Peter
Drucker in his book, The Landmarks of Tomorrow (1959). Drucker defined
knowledge workers as high-level workers who apply theoretical and analytical
knowledge, acquired through formal training, to develop products and services.
Does this sound familiar?
Nurses are
very much knowledge workers. What has changed since Drucker’s time are the ways
that knowledge can be acquired. The volume of data that can now be generated
and the tools used to access this data have evolved significantly in recent
years and helped healthcare professionals (among many others) to assume the
role of knowledge worker in new and powerful ways.
In this
Assignment, you will consider the evolving role of the nurse leader and how
this evolution has led nurse leaders to assume the role of knowledge worker.
You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an infographic (graphic that
visually represents information, data, or knowledge. Infographics are intended
to present information quickly and clearly.) to educate others on the role of
nurse as knowledge worker.
Reference:
Drucker, P. (1959). The landmarks of tomorrow. New York, NY: HarperCollins
Publishers.

Week 8 Assignment
Assignment:
Literature Review: The Use of Clinical Systems to Improve Outcomes and
Efficiencies
New
technology—and the application of existing technology—only appears in
healthcare settings after careful and significant research. The stakes are
high, and new clinical systems need to offer evidence of positive impact on
outcomes or efficiencies.
Nurse
informaticists and healthcare leaders formulate clinical system strategies. As
these strategies are often based on technology trends, informaticists and
others have then benefited from consulting existing research to inform their
