The role of the clinical nurse specialist in information systems selection
Abstract
As computer utilization in the health care industry continues to expand, the role of the nurse in the system selection process increasingly becomes paramount. Information systems are more likely to have a nursing perspective if the nurse who is involved in the information system selection process is a clinical nurse specialist (CNS). Three principles of practice which should be utilized in structuring the role of the CNS in the information system selection process are discussed, along with practical guidelines to assist the CNS in participating effectively.
