Competencies


How do you determine what skills or qualities will benefit you as a leader in your healthcare organization or nursing practice?

This question might be answered through the analysis of nursing informatics competencies. The analysis of these competencies provides a context for the qualities needed to effectively lead and implement projects in your healthcare organization or nursing practice.  

Appraise the Standards for Nursing Informatics Practice (Standard 1-6) and the leadership strategies addressed in Informatics leadership Standard 12, that you might employ to establish a culture that supports new information technology initiatives. Consider the competences that we have discussed during this course.
