Information has become a capital good and is focused on outcomes. Clinical guidelines are being developed to standardize care for populations, but patient preferences also need to be known when planning individualized care. Information technologies can be used to retrieve both types of information. The concern is that nurses are not adequately prepared to manage information using technology. This paper presents five strategic directions recommended by the National Advisory Council on Nurse Education and Practice (Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Nursing) to enhance nurses' preparation to use and develop information technology. The recommendations are 1) to include core informatics content in nursing curricula, 2) to prepare nurses with specialized skills in informatics, 3) to enhance nursing practice and education through informatics projects, 4) to prepare nursing faculty in informatics, and 5) to increase collaborative efforts in nursing informatics. The potential impact of these strategic directions on patients is discussed.
信息已成为一种资本商品，并聚焦于结果。临床指南正在制定中，以规范针对人群的护理，但在规划个性化护理时，也需要了解患者的偏好。信息技术可用于检索这两类信息。令人担忧的是，护士在使用技术管理信息方面准备不足。本文介绍了国家护士教育与实践咨询委员会（卫生与公众服务部，护理司）推荐的五个战略方向，以加强护士使用和开发信息技术的准备。这些建议是：1）将核心信息学内容纳入护理课程；2）培养具有信息学专业技能的护士；3）通过信息学项目加强护理实践和教育；4）培养护理信息学教师；5）加强护理信息学方面的合作努力。文中还讨论了这些战略方向对患者的潜在影响。
