The Concept Of Informatics
1) The Nurse Is Documenting In The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) After Providing Care In
The Client's Room. The Client Asks The Nurse Why A Computer Is Being Used. Which Response

A) "The Information That Is Uploaded Is Available For Anyone To View."
B) "Computers Improve Client Care Because Information Is Readily Available." C) "The Computer
Decreases Documentation Time For Nurses."
D) "Computers Allow You Access To Your Medical Record."
Answer: B
Explanation: A) Nursing Informatics Is The Science Of Using Computers In Nursing Practice To
Improve Client Care By Making Client Information Easily Accessible For The Client And Other
Healthcare Workers Who Are Participating In The Client's Care. Documenting Client Information
By Computer Does Not Necessarily Reduce Charting Time, Depending On The System Used. The
Client's Information Is Protected By Privacy Laws. Clients Have The Right To Access Their Medical
Records Regardless Of Whether They Are Paper Or Electronic.
B) Nursing Informatics Is The Science Of Using Computers In Nursing Practice To Improve Client
Care By Making Client Information Easily Accessible For The Client And Other Healthcare
Workers Who Are Participating In The Client's Care. Documenting Client Information By
Computer Does Not Necessarily Reduce Charting Time, Depending On The System Used. The
,Client's Information Is Protected By Privacy Laws. Clients Have The Right To Access Their Medical
Records Regardless Of Whether They Are Paper Or Electronic.
