For this assignment you are to “Assume you are a nurse manager on a unit where a new nursing documentation system is to be implemented. You want to ensure that the system will be usable and acceptable for the nurses impacted. You realize a nurse leader must be on the implementation team”. For the purposes of this assignment, the nurse leader is a graduate-level nurse informaticist.
To Prepare:
- Review the steps of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and reflect on the scenario presented.
- Consider the benefits and challenges associated with involving a nurse leader (nurse informaticist) on an implementation team for health information technology.
In preparation for filling this role, develop a 2- to 3-page role description for a graduate-level nurse informaticist to guide his/her participation on the implementation team. The role description should be based on the SDLC steps and tasks and should clearly define how this individual will participate in and impact each of the following steps: Planning and requirements definition, analysis, design of the new system, implementation, and post-implementation support. Use the course text to identify the required tasks in each step. According to the rubric, to earn top points “An accurate and fully developed role description is provided for the Assignment and fully supports the guidance of a graduate-level nurse’s participation in the steps of the SDLC. The responses accurately and thoroughly define in detail a graduate-level nurse’s participation in the steps of the SDLC. The responses accurately and thoroughly explain in detail the impacts of a graduate-level nurse’s participation in the steps of the SDLC”. The Week 10 assignment specifies that you should integrate 3 or more peer-reviewed articles and 2 or more course resources for this assignment.
