Review this week’s Learning Resources, including pages 481–483 (See attached file) in the Dennis course text, on change management. How is change management relevant to the role of the nurse informaticist?
Change Management
As health care organizations adopt more and more informatics solutions, they inevitably experience significant changes. Such changes are often met with hesitation, resistance, and even outright refusal. Nurse informaticists should be aware of these barriers and be prepared to employ change-management strategies to ensure stakeholder buy-in and end-user adoption.
In this Discussion, you explore the concept of change management and how it is relevant to the role of the nurse informaticist. You consider what steps can be taken during implementation of a project to contribute to more successful end-user adoption. In addition, you explore the competencies and skills a nurse informaticist should have when serving as a change agent within an organization.
