Area of Science:

Nursing Informatics
Health Information Technology
Healthcare Workforce Development

Background:

Nursing informatics competencies were not clearly defined until 2002.
Early assessments (1999-2006) focused on attitudes and online resource use, not comprehensive skills.
Establishing baseline informatics competency in the current nursing workforce is crucial for future healthcare planning.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review literature on US nursing informatics competency beyond recent graduates.
To assess if current nurses possess adequate informatics knowledge and skills.
To evaluate the facilitation of evidence-based practice and electronic medical record (EMR) system utilization.

Main Methods:

Systematic literature review focusing on US nursing informatics competency.
Analysis of research on informatics education and clinical assessment in the US.
Examination of literature from 1999 to the present.

Main Results:

Nursing informatics competencies lacked clear definition before 2002.
Limited scope of clinical assessments in early studies (attitudes, online resources).
Significant need for job-specific competency development, evaluation tools, and educational guidelines.

Conclusions:

The existing US nursing workforce needs further development in informatics competency.
Healthcare organizations must establish clear guidelines for nursing informatics education and evaluation.
Addressing these needs is vital for advancing evidence-based practice and optimizing technology use.
