Respond to the Main post bellow offering one or more additional interaction strategies in support of the examples/observations shared or by offering further insight to the thoughts shared about the future of these interactions.

Note: the answer should be in a positive way 

                                                    Main Question Post

Nursing Informatics

Nurse informaticists interact with other professionals in my healthcare setting in a variety of ways. One of these ways is through sharing patient information as and when needed. The increased manner in which medical facilities are adopting the use of health information technology means that the nurse informaticists have an integral role that they play in ensuring that patient data is availed when needed (Harrington, 2017). The Nurse informaticists also ensure that patient data is kept accurately and safely so that it can help in proper medical attention of the concerned patients. In so doing, nurse informaticists interact with those who admit patients at the facilities, those in charge of diagnosing and the laboratory technicians to ensure that there is a smooth flow of data from one point to the next (Lee, 2014).

The IT department at my current work place is not physically around or on the floors for night shift, which is when I work. So there isn’t much interaction with the nurse informatistics, but for their physical absence at night there is a contact line that we the employees can access whenever needed. That nurse informatistics has access to mirror what we are seeing on the actual computer screen so that they are able to help in more productive manner. If there is a new feature on the software there will be a super user which are more than likely nurses who have been trained on the new feature to help and aid in the process when needed. For instance, there is a new feature on the software at my work place that involves an innovative way to waste narcotics via the software. Because it has such a huge impact on the hospital they are having an information sessions at various times to accommodate every shift, which will allow a better understanding of the new feature at hand.  

One way of improving these interactions will be by increasing familiarity among team members to the extent that every team member knows the strengths, weaknesses, and idiosyncrasies of all team members (Kalisch & Begeny, 2015). In so doing, it will be possible to take decisive measures on who should handle a particular aspect so that its outcome is the most desirable. Increased familiarity will lead to teamwork, which is likely to enhance the productivity of the nurse informaticists and other segments of the medical facility. 

I believe that the continued evolution of nursing informaticists is likely to eliminate the physical distances among nurses and their facilities, something that will lead to improved patient outcomes. Nursing informaticist is likely to lead to seamless societies where it is possible to interact with other nurses located very many miles from each other and share their experiences or challenges in their line of duty. In so doing, it will be possible to come up with the most desired patient outcomes.

t is anticipated that the initial discussion response should be in the range of 250-300 words. Response posts must demonstrate topic knowledge and scholarly engagement with peers. This is not the only criteria utilized for evaluation; substantive content is imperative. All questions in the topic must be addressed. Please proofread your response carefully for grammar and spelling. Do not upload any attachments. All responses need to be supported by a minimum of one scholarly resource. Journals and websites must be cited appropriately. Citation and reference must adhere to APA format (6th Ed.). Classroom Participation

Students are expected to initially address the discussion question by Wednesday of each week. Participation in the discussion forums is expected with a minimum total of three (3) substantive postings (this includes your initial posting and posting to two peers) on three (3) different days per week. Substantive means that you add something new to the discussion, you aren’t just agreeing. This is also a time to ask questions or offer information surrounding the topic addressed by your peers. Personal experience is appropriate for a substantive discussion and should be correlated to the literature.

All discussion boards will be evaluated utilizing rubric criterion inclusive of content, analysis, collaboration, writing and APA. If you fail to post an initial discussion you will not receive these points, you may however post to your peers for partial credit following the guidelines above. Due to the nature of this type of assignment and the need for timely responses for initial posts and posting to peers, the Make-Up Coursework Policy (effective July 2017) does not apply to Discussion Board Participation. Discussion Prompt [Due Wednesday]

Sally is 18 years old and recently became bothered by a rash that is itchy, red, inflamed, and dry. She also has scaly areas that she says are getting worse.The rash is only around her umbilicus and on her elbows. Both of her parents have psoriasis, but she doesn’t believe this is the problem, because it appears different from her parent’s lesions. She lives in Florida, is under a lot of stress in high school, and just recovered from a lingering upper respiratory infection (URI).

Questions: What do you anticipate the rash will look like? Using the internet search engine find an image that reflects what the patient is reporting and attach for all to see. What are the risk factors for Sally getting psoriasis? What diagnostic test might you order? Name your top three differentials? What is the goal of therapy? What would you order first to treat? What follow up or referral is needed?
