Chapter 1 Nursing Science and the Foundation of Knowledge
The nurse understands that nursinginformatics is recognized as a specialtyarea of practice by which
statement?
1. Research priorities for nursinginformatics include the development of a standard nursing
language and the development of databases for clinical information.
2. A formal educational program at the master's level must be completed before a nurse is
eligible to sit for the credentialing examination.
3. As a differentiated practice, nursinginformatics is focused upon the client, the environment,
health, and the nurse.
4. Thereis a need for nursinginformatics interests to gain representation bywork groups and
organizations within the United States.
Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for credentialing is
typicallyat the bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. Current demands for safer,
cost-effective, quality care require evidence of the best practices supported by research.
Rationale 2: Such a formal educational program does not necessarilymean a specialtyarea of
practice. Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for
credentialing is typically at the bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. The
development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
Rationale 3: Your chosen response refers to the entire discipline of nursing. The specialty of nursing
informatics integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to manage and
communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom into nursingpractice. The development of
research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
Rationale 4: There are many work groups in the United States related to informatics that focus on
the specialtyof informatics practice. One example is the Nursing Informatics Special Interest
Group of the International Medical Informatics Association. The development of research
priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
