Essentials of Nursing Informatics, 5th Edition PDF
Saba & McCormick's "Essentials of Nursing Informatics" is an exceptional text and reference for new and experienced informaticians. Beginning with the history of informatics, it guides the reader through the hardware of computer systems, how information systems are designed and built, and the role of information systems in clinical practice and healthcare. Important contemporary topics, such as terminology and data standards, evidence-based practice, Web 2.0, and many, many others, are thoughtfully discussed and illuminate these sujects. I highly recommend this book to the novice and to the accomplished informatician, as well as those interested in exploring this important specialty.By Sharon McLane
Informatics is a newer field in nursing. I needed to take a class to expand my knowledge in the field. This book offers a very detailed explanation to ensure that your knowledge is based in fact. Well written and very concise. I know that many will buy this book because it is required, but if you are looking to purchase a book to read on your own to gain knowledge, rest assured that this book will give it to you.By V. Nelson
