g g g g g g g g
The nurse understands that nursing informatics is recognized as a specialty area of practice by
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
which statement?
g g
1. Research priorities for nursing informatics include the development of a standard nursing
g g g g g g g g g g g
language and the development of databases for clinical information.
g g g g g g g g g
2. A formal educational program at the master's level must be completed before a nurse is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
eligible to sit for the credentialing examination.
g g g g g g g
3. As a differentiated practice, nursing informatics is focused upon the client, the environment,
g g g g g g g g g g g g
health, and the nurse.
g g g g
4. There is a need for nursing informatics interests to gain representation by work groups and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
organizations within the United States.
g g g g g
Correct Answer: 1 g g
Rationale 1: The development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for credentialing is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
typically at the bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. Current demands for safer,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
cost-effective, quality care require evidence of the best practices supported by research.
g g g g g g g g g g g g
Rationale 2: Such a formal educational program does not necessarily mean a specialty area of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
practice. Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
credentialing is typically at the bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. The
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
g g g g g g g g g g g g
Rationale 3: Your chosen response refers to the entire discipline of nursing. The specialty of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
nursing informatics integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to
g g g g g g g g g g g
manage and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom into nursing practice. The
g g g g g g g g g g g g
development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
g g g g g g g g g g g g
Rationale 4: There are many work groups in the United States related to informatics that focus
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
on the specialty of informatics practice. One example is the Nursing Informatics Special Interest
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
Group of the International Medical Informatics Association. The development of research
g g g g g g g g g g g
priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.

"information" useful in caring for clients?
g g g g g g
1. The vital signs are BP of 130/70, HR of 88, RR of 24, temperature of 98.8 degrees F., and
