saf̣er, cost-ef̣f̣ective, quality care require evidence of̣ the best practices supported by research.

Rationale 2: Such a f̣ormal educational program does not necessarily mean a specialty area of̣
practice. Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required f̣or

nursing inf̣ormatics integrates nursing science, computer science, and inf̣ormation science to
manage and communicate data, inf̣ormation, knowledge, and wisdom into nursing practice. The
