Chapter 1 Nursing Science And The Foundation Of Knowledge
The Nurse Understands That Nursing Informatics Is Recognized As A Specialty Area Of Practice
By Which Statement?
1. Research Priorities For Nursing Informatics Include The Development Of A Standard
Nursing Language And The Development Of Databases For Clinical Information.
2. A Formal Educational Program At The Master's Level Must Be Completed Before A
Nurse Is Eligible To Sit For The Credentialing Examination.
3. As A Differentiated Practice, Nursing Informatics Is Focused Upon The Client, The
Environment, Health, And The Nurse.
4. There Is A Need For Nursing Informatics Interests To Gain Representation By Work
Groups And Organizations Within The United States.
Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The Development Of Research Priorities Is A Key Point In A Specialty Practice.
Although Degrees At The Master's Level Are Available, The Degree Required For
Credentialing Is Typically At The Bachelor's Level And Includes Experience In The Field.
Current Demands For Safer, Cost-Effective, Quality Care Require Evidence Of The Best
Practices Supported By Research.
Rationale 2: Such A Formal Educational Program Does Not Necessarily Mean A Specialty
Area Of Practice. Although Degrees At The Master's Level Are Available, The Degree
Required For Credentialing Is Typically At The Bachelor's Level And Includes Experience In
The Field. The Development Of Research Priorities Is A Key Point In A Specialty Practice.
Rationale 3: Your Chosen Response Refers To The Entire Discipline Of Nursing. The Specialty
Of Nursing Informatics Integrates Nursing Science, Computer Science, And Information Science
To Manage And Communicate Data, Information, Knowledge, And Wisdom Into Nursing
Practice. The Development Of Research Priorities Is A Key Point In A Specialty Practice.
Rationale 4: There Are Many Work Groups In The United States Related To Informatics That
Focus On The Specialty Of Informatics Practice. One Example Is The Nursing Informatics
Special Interest Group Of The International Medical Informatics Association. The Development
Of Research Priorities Is A Key Point In A Specialty Practice.
Global Rationale:
, Cognitive Level: Understanding
Client Need: Safe Effective Care Environment
Client Need Sub: Management Of Care
Nursing/Integrated Concepts: Nursing Process: Assessment

Evaluate, And Effectively Use Information. The Other Answers Are Examples Of Computer
Literacy But Do Not Have The Higher Functions Of Information Literacy.
Rationale 2: Your Chosen Response Is An Example Of Computer Literacy, But It Does Not Have
The Higher Functions Of Information Literacy. Information Literacy Necessitates That Nurses
Have The Ability To Find, Evaluate, And Effectively Use Information.
Rationale 3: Your Chosen Response Is An Example Of Computer Literacy But, It Does Not Have
The Higher Functions Of Information Literacy. Information Literacy Necessitates That Nurses
Have The Ability To Find, Evaluate, And Effectively Use Information.
Rationale 4: This Answer Is An Example Of Computer Literacy But, It Does Not Have The
Higher Functions Of Information Literacy. Information Literacy Necessitates That Nurses Have
