Description
About the Book
"PMI also sought to establish project management as a profession, although it is not necessary to formally assume that role to benefit and apply associated knowledge and skills, as will be demonstrated through the many examples provided in this book. It is my contention that project management skills will play a key role in the collaborative transformation of the healthcare delivery system through the efforts of engaged healthcare professionals, payors, and consumers via a multitude of projects over time. The Future of Nursing report (Institute of Medicine [IOM], 2010) and National Academy of Medicine (formerly the Institute of Medicine) in The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Achieve Health Equity (Faubert et al., 2021), calls for nurses to play a pivotal role in transformation. One tool to achieve transformation is information technology. The implementation of any information technology in a given healthcare organization exemplifies a project. Nursing informatics as a specialty delineates project management as key to its work. The American Nurses Credentialing Center's (2018) test content outline for the informatics nursing credentialing examination includes all facets of project management. As a long-time nurse educator and coauthor of Handbook of Informatics for Nurses and Health Care Professionals, I recognize the importance of project management to successful outcomes and particularly to the integration of information systems and technology"--Book Synopsis
