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.
