Title: A nursing information system. The outcome of implementing nursing diagnoses. Author: Mehmert PA. Journal: Nurs Clin North Am; 1987 Dec; 22(4):943-53. PubMed ID: 3684711. Abstract: The use of nursing diagnosis, as the focus for care planning and as a role expectation for professional nursing practice, has evolved throughout the years into a concept that has permeated all other systems in the Department of Nursing. Systems that were previously mutually exclusive were organized through the use of nursing diagnosis-based care planning and were integrated to improve both nursing efficiency and efficacy. Full computerization of the Nursing Information System Model (Fig. 1) will have the nursing diagnosis-based patient care plan and the medical orders for nursing intervention as the source of all clinical nursing data and will provide the majority of nursing administrative management data.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
