"Healthcare professionals in today’s society realize the importance of transforming healthcare through the use of information, knowledge, and technology"
Nursing Informatics is the integration of Nursing science, Computer science, and Information science. Its goal is to have an integration of data by identifying, collecting, processing information to support nurses in educating, researching, and expanding of nursing knowledge that would greatly help Nurses to gain new ideas in order for them render high quality nursing care to patients.
