Nursing Informatics Project Proposal
The purpose of this paper is to describe the project proposal to the leadership of one
healthcare organization.
... [Show More] This proposing nursing informatics project develops the aim of
improving patient care and outcomes. The first part will be a detailed description of the proposed
project. The second part will be to identify the stakeholders. The paper will also discuss how this
project will impact the stakeholders and how they are related to this project. The next part is the
patient outcome or patient-care efficiencies that this project is aimed to improve, and how this
improvement would occur. Technology that requires to implement in the project will be
discussed. The last part is the project team and their roles. Most importantly, the role of nurse
informaticists will contribute to this project team.
Description of the Project
The project that is proposed is about utilizing telehealth technology, such as portable
laptops and smartphones. All healthcare staff should be getting the wearable monitored
smartphone when starting the shift, and also each nursing station should be getting portable
laptops. This tool enables healthcare providers and clinicians to record and analyze the
information and use this information in making informed clinical decisions that ensure the best
quality and safe patient cares (Tuckson et al., 2017). Clinicians and healthcare providers can also
communicate with other healthcare team members through a wearable monitor smartphone
regarding patient care. For example, medical laboratory staff can send a text message to alert

health care providers regarding a critical lab result. Any implementation can be acted right away
to avoid death or complications. With wearable monitor smartphones, nurses can make a quick
phone call to providers when there is a sudden change in a patient's condition without going to
the nurse station to make a phone call. A brief video phone call can be made to the other
hospital's specialty when there is none available onsite through the portable computer. Nurses on
the unit can have an easy access to electronic health record system on their finger-tip [Show Less]
