Nursing Informatics Self Assessment
|
This site was created to offer registered nurses an online tool for self assessment in general Nursing Informatics competencies. Various competency taxonomies have been reviewed and integrated in the process. The intention of this work is to give you a preliminary analysis of your current expertise and learning needs in the realm of informatics in nursing. The results of this assessment do not represent testing or examinations offered by any informatics - related organization or particular school. This is purely a professional development exercise in self assessment for the purpose of assisting you in creating a personal learning plan for further education and practice.
This part of the Self Assessment area will evolve over time. For now, the P.A.T.C.H. (Pretest for Attitudes towards Computers in Health care) is available to complete and score online. Just go to the section below to begin. |
