Registered nurses are key healthcare knowledge workers. Supportive clinical environments are crucial for nurses to effectively gather data, use information, and build knowledge.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Informatics
  • Healthcare Management
  • Knowledge Management

Background:

  • Registered nurses (RNs) are the largest group of healthcare knowledge workers.
  • RNs perform critical roles including data gathering, information utilization, and knowledge creation.
  • Effective knowledge work by RNs depends on supportive clinical practice environments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the knowledge-worker roles of registered nurses.
  • To identify computerized mechanisms supporting these roles.
  • To evaluate current healthcare settings' capacity to support nurses' knowledge work.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and analysis of current healthcare settings.
  • Examination of roles in data gathering, information use, and knowledge building.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Assessment of technological and environmental support for nursing knowledge work.

    • Main Results:

    • RNs function as data gatherers, information users, knowledge users, and knowledge builders.
    • Computerized systems can significantly support these knowledge-worker functions.
    • Many current healthcare settings lack environments conducive to optimal RN knowledge work.

    Conclusions:

    • Clinical practice environments must be optimized to support nurses' knowledge work.
    • Recommendations are provided for developing supportive environments.
    • Enhancing support systems is vital for advancing nursing practice and patient care.
