General principles of Nursing Informatics
Nursing informatics is the specialty that integrates nursing science with multiple
information management and analytical sciences to identify, define, manage, and
communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom in nursing practice.
One of the most frequently quoted and widely accepted definitions of nursing informatics is
that it is a combination of nursing science, information science and computer science
· Knowledge
•All nurses have the opportunity to be involved in the formal dissemination of knowledge via
their participation in professional conferences either as presenters or attendees.
•All nurses, regardless of the practice arena, must use informatics and technology to inform
and support that practice.
· Wisdom
•Wisdom is the application of knowledge to an appropriate situation.
•In the practice of nursing science, we expect action and/or actions directed by wisdom.
•Wisdom uses knowledge and experience to heighten common sense and insight to exercise
sound judgment in practical matters. It is developed through knowledge, experience, insight
and reflection.
· Scientific Underpinning
The scientific underpinnings of practice provide the basis of knowledge
for advanced nursing practice. These scientific underpinnings include
sciences such as biology, physiology, psychology, ethics, and nursing.
