Nursing Informatics for Nursing Students

        The advent of technology have streamlined the process of researching information ad delivering care based on it used. But the fundamentals of focusing on how content is to be used and the task in which the nurse is engaged has not changed. It is important to this rapidly growing environment that information providers, Healthcare facilities, and academic institutions continue to fully understand why information is required, and how it is accessed, managed, and consumed by nurses, nursing students, and educators.
           For Nursing students, this subject is very important in order for them to know the basic and fundamentals of computers which is now widely used in Hospital setting that is why the Commission on Higher Education recommended to all deans of the College of Nursing to have this subject in the curriculum. It can also help students in their future careers by having them aware or for them to avoid stress and errors in documenting patients records. Nursing students can benefit from this because it is now very important to hire nurses who are computer literate. It can also lessen the time consumption especially nurses who have heavy work load.
