Working Group
Nursing Informatics is the "science and practice (that) integrates nursing, its information and knowledge, with information and communication technologies to promote the health of people, families, and communities worldwide." (adapted from IMIA Special Interest Group on Nursing Informatics 2009). The application of nursing informatics knowledge is empowering for all healthcare practitioners in achieving patient centered care.
Innovators in Nursing Informatics
The Nursing Informatics Working Group set out to document and preserve the history of nursing informatics. In doing so, they captured stories of innovators in nursing informatics and shared the evolution of informatics as a specialty in nursing.
