Clinician informatics leadership has been identified as an essential component of addressing the 'implementation to benefits realization gap' that exists for many digital health technologies. Chief Medical Informatics Officers (CMIOs), and Chief Nursing Informatics Officers (CNIOs) are well-positioned to ensure the success of these initiatives. However, while the CMIO role is fairly well-established in Canada, there is limited uptake of CNIO roles in the country. The main objective of this work is to build on the current progress of the CMIO role and explore how the CNIO role can be best positioned for uptake and value across healthcare organizations in Canada. A qualitative study was conducted. Ten clinician leaders in CMIO, CNIO, and related roles in Canada were interviewed about the value of these roles and strategies for supporting the uptake of the role. This study provides the foundation for future initiatives for supporting and showcasing the value of the CNIO in a digitally enabled healthcare organization.
临床信息学领导力已被确定为解决许多数字健康技术存在的“从实施到实现效益差距”的重要组成部分。首席医疗信息官（CMIO）和首席护理信息官（CNIO）非常适合确保这些计划的成功。然而，虽然加拿大的 CMIO 角色已经相当成熟，但在该国，CNIO 角色的采用率有限。这项工作的主要目的是在当前 CMIO 角色的进展基础上，探讨如何在加拿大的医疗保健组织中最佳定位 CNIO 角色以实现采用和价值。进行了一项定性研究。对加拿大的 10 名临床医生领导，包括 CMIO、CNIO 和相关角色，就这些角色的价值以及支持该角色采用的策略进行了访谈。这项研究为未来的举措提供了基础，以支持和展示数字医疗保健组织中 CNIO 的价值。
