This lecture discusses a philosophy of educating health information professionals in a rapidly changing health care and information environment.
Education for health information professionals must be based upon a solid foundation of the changing paradigms and trends in health care and health information, as well as technological advances, to produce a well-prepared information workforce to meet the demands of health-related environments. Educational programs should begin with the core principles of library and information sciences and expand in interdisciplinary collaborations. A model of the health care environment is presented to serve as a framework for developing educational programs for health information professionals.
Interdisciplinary and collaborative relationships-which merge health care, library and information sciences, and other information-related disciplines-should form the basis of education for health information professionals.

健康信息专业人员的教育必须建立在医疗保健和健康信息不断变化的范式和趋势以及技术进步的坚实基础之上,以培养一支准备充分的信息工作队伍,满足与健康相关的环境的需求。教育计划应以图书馆和信息科学的核心原则为基础,并扩展到跨学科合作。提出了医疗保健环境模型,作为为健康信息专业人员制定教育计划的框架。
跨学科和协作关系——将医疗保健、图书馆和信息科学以及其他信息相关学科融合在一起——应构成健康信息专业人员教育的基础。
