...Analysis of the Clinical Informatics Job Description Ann Miller American Sentinel University Analysis of the Clinical Informatics Job Description What is an Informatics Nurse, an Nurse Informaticist? When people ask me what job that I do and I reply “Informatics”, they get an interesting look on their face. The look is of concern and of that is not what a nurse does. The public is not educated in what this position’s importance really is and that is too bad. What is a typical day like for an informatics nurse like myself? That question is easy. There are no typical days! I can honestly say that this is what I like about my job position. Some days I am going to staff meetings where I am educating on a new process to a page from the floor that a provider needs my help. I have many computer classes to teach for staff, nursing students, providers, and soon 80 or so high school students who will be joining us for the next seven months to learn patient basic care and documentation. In my spare time- I do get some from time to time, I have many projects that I am working on to optimize the electronic medical record. The projects can be getting rid of any paper processes that remain and doing whatever it takes to get them all electronic from the development of provider order sets (Powerplans), to nursing processes, and education. You cannot forget about the education. Education has to come in many formats, including group settings (staff meetings), one-on-one, on-line...

Juarez, MPH Lara Boyett, MSN, RN, ACNP-BC, CEN Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate emergency nurses’ experiences and perceptions of violence from patients and visitors in US emergency departments (EDs). Background: The ED is a particularly vulnerable setting for workplace violence, and because of a lack of standardized measurement and reporting mechanisms for violence in healthcare settings, data are scarce. Methods: Registered nurse members (n = 3,465) of the Emergency Nurses Association participated in this cross-sectional study by completing a 69-item survey. Results: Approximately 25% of respondents reported experiencing physical violence more than 20 times in the past 3 years, and almost 20% reported experiencing verbal abuse more than 200 times during the same period. Respondents who experienced frequent physical violence and/or frequent verbal abuse indicated fear of retaliation and lack of support from hospital administration and ED management as barriers to reporting workplace violence. Conclusion: Violence against ED nurses is highly prevalent. Precipitating factors to violent incidents identified by respondents is consistent with the research literature; however, there is considerable potential to mitigate...

...CHAPTER – 1 INTRODUCTION TO INTERNET WHAT IS A NETWORK? [pic] A network is a group of computers that are able to communicate with one another and share data, files, programs, and operations. The computers in a network are connected via hardware and software. The hardware is what physically connects the computers in the network together. For example: telephone lines, fibre-optic cables, routers and gateways, and the computers themselves. The software is what enables us to use the hardware for communication and exchanging information. Just as your brain tells your body parts how to function and work together, the software governs the way computers in the network communicate with each other and perform functions. Software that enables networking follows a set of rules that are generally referred to as protocol. Networks can be interoperable. This means that different types of computers, using different operating systems, can be connected, communicate with each other, and share information - as long as they follow the network protocols. [pic] In Summary: A network is a group of two or more computers, connected together through a physical infrastructure, that are able to communicate and exchange information because they agree to use software that observes the same set of rules, or protocol. WHAT IS THE INTERNET? • A network of networks • Based on TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) • Global • A variety of services and...
