Nursing Informatics - CASN National Symposium

 

 

On November 29th and 30th, 2011, over 50 stakeholders participated in a National Symposium for the CASN project Generating Momentum to Prepare Nursing Graduates for the Electronic World of Health Care Delivery: Engaging Stakeholders, Building Capacity, Mobilizing Curriculum Development. The project's Task Force of champions collected feedback on their draft entry-to-practice registered nursing informatics competencies. CASN presented a draft environmental scan of nursing informatics teaching and learning resources, and identified gaps where additional resources could be developed.The Symposium concluded with three presentations on successful methods for teaching nursing informatics. CASN is excited to finalize the Nursing Informatics Competencies and inventory of teaching and learning resources, and share them with all of our stakeholders within the next 6 months.

Symposium National de l'ACESI

 

Le 29 et 30 novembre 2011, plus de 50 intervenants ont particip�s au symposium national pour le projet de l'ACESI : �La formation de la prochaine g�n�ration d'infirmi�res et infirmiers � l'utilisation clinique efficace des technologies de l'information et des communications dans la prestation des soins de la sant�. Le groupe de travail du projet a pu collecter des commentaires concernant l'�bauche qu'il avait fait sur les comp�tences requises en informatique pour l'admission � la profession d'infirmi�re ou infirmier certifi�. De plus, l'ACESI a pr�sent� une �bauche d'un projet d'analyse environnemental concernant les ressources disponibles en enseignement et en apprentissage en informatique infirmi�re. Elle a aussi identifi� les lacunes des autres ressources qui pourraient �tre d�velopp�es davantage. Finalement, le symposium a termin� avec trois pr�sentations sur les m�thodes d'enseignement de l'informatique infirmi�re qui ont �t� concluantes. En somme, l'ACESI est tr�s heureuse de pouvoir finaliser le projet sur les comp�tences requises en informatique infirmi�re ainsi que l'inventaire des ressources en apprentissage et en enseignement.
