Objective:
To consolidate informatics competencies for nurse leaders.
Background:
Nurses in leadership positions with financial and human resource responsibilities have the capacity to shape how technologies are selected, implemented, and used. Many nurse leaders are not equipped with the essential informatics competencies to do so effectively. There have been efforts to identify a set of standard informatics competencies that should be core to every nurse leader's suite of capabilities; nonetheless, these efforts have yet to be disseminated widely.
Methods:
A scoping review was conducted by: 1) identifying the research questions; 2) identifying relevant studies; 3) selecting studies; 4) extracting collected data; and 5) reporting the results.
Results:
Fifteen articles were found, and 11 competency themes related to informatics knowledge, informatics skills, and others were identified.
Conclusion:
Findings of this review can be used to support nursing leaders in their identification of gaps in their informatics knowledge and skill.
