• Describe the types of data that are tracked and how the data are monitored, stored, and trended.

 

• Describe how a nurse researcher, nurse leader, and nurse informaticist use information technology to define patient safety within the context of outcomes.

 

• How well does it accomplish what it is designed to do in your chosen real-world setting?

 

• Describe how nurses can enhance the technology through participation in design and testing of the system.

 

• How might the technology be enhanced so it better meets the needs of the healthcare professionals currently using the system?
