Abstract:
The benefits of Magnet status are well documented. However, the challenges of completing the Magnet application can overextend an organization's data collection processes and systems. The authors discuss the driving forces behind development of Step One, a cost-effective on-line system alternative to manual demographic data collection. The article presents an overview of staff's role in system development and rollout and describes improvements in efficiency, accuracy, and satisfaction from data collection to final American Nurse Credentialing Center report generation.

Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets.
Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
