Nurses, and health care and interprofessional education professionals, will learn the principles of information leadership in clinical and academic environments, and apply their knowledge to real-world situations in practice and training/education.
Develop a portfolio of nursing information leadership work during internship that you can use for personal and professional development.
In this first of five courses, Dr. Karen Monsen presents the fundamentals of leadership in nursing informatics and the skills designed to guide you in your studies while applying leadership principles in the field of nursing.
In this course, we will explore the AMIA Nursing Informatics History Project. By the end of the module, you will understand the resources available to use in this course to learn about early experiences, future vision, and lessons learned on the path to becoming pioneers in the field of nursing informatics.
“At the end of this course, you will know…”
In this course, I will delve into the teaching and learning skills that are useful for nursing informatics leaders. I will also guide you through the process of developing a course document or syllabus for a nursing informatics specialization in both academic and practical or industrial contexts.
In this course, students from the health and information technology professions will examine models for interprofessional collaboration and teamwork, practice communication techniques to promote effective interaction, and envision future skills in interprofessional informatics scenarios. We will hear from nurses and other informaticians who lead and work in professional collaboration, and we will gain insights from their diverse perspectives. When we think about the range of leadership skills required in nursing informatics, we can conclude that leadership in interprofessional informatics will require at least that range or more. We will expand our vision of nursing informatics leadership to include the interprofessional applications of the Competing Values Framework and the Minnesota Nursing Informatics Leadership Survey. For students interested in completing the specialization, there is a sixth module in the course dedicated to creating a peer-reviewed portfolio. The purpose of the portfolio is to help students integrate, synthesize, and document their learning through the completion of a five-course specialization.
