Nursing informatics training is offered for which of the following types of programs
All of the above
Which of the following are considered part of the Scope and Standards for Nursing Informatics Practice established by the American Nurses Association (ANA) (Select all that apply.)
Assessment, Diagnosis, Outcome Identification, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation
Which of the following roles would be open to an informatics nurse
Clinical systems analyst --> who troubleshoots system problems
Which of the following theories or disciplines is related to nursing informatics?
Cognitive science theory Rationale: The theoretical bases for nursing informatics includes nursing informatics theory, socio-technical theory, change theories, general systems theory, chaos theory, cognitive science theory, usability theory, and learning theories.
Which of the following reflect benefits of EHRs SATA
Data reporting - Accessibility, Security, Quality improvement, Rationale: There are many benefits to EHRs, including the accessibility of patient health information, the improved quality of care in patient outcomes, increased security provided by electronic health records systems, and the ability to report and track large amounts of health data.
True or False: As long as an EHR functions efficiently to meet a single department's needs, it is considered sufficient for that organization
FALSE
True or false: Because it is a newer field, the focus of nursing informatics education remains consistent from program to program.
FALSE
True or false: Only nurses who work in the lab need to learn about the laboratory information system (LIS)
FALSE
True or False: There is no difference between the roles of an informatics nurse and informatics nurse specialist.
False
True or false: Computer competency alone is sufficient for a career in informatics.
False
True or false: The three concepts involved in Lewin's Force Field Theory are behavioral disruptions, behavioral compliance, and balance.
False Rationale: The three forces involved in Lewin's Force Field Theory are driving forces, restraining forces, and equilibrium.
True or False: The HIPAA law protects all patient information.
False. IT doesn't cover 100% pt info. it addresses healthcare fraud, admin simplification, electronic transactions, Rationale: This statement is false. There are three categories that HIPAA covers: fee-for-service healthcare providers, health plans, or healthcare clearinghouses that electronically bill the CMS. This means the law does not cover 100% of patient information. One area of concern is electronic health records and personal health records. The HITECH Act was passed to provide additional security for health information.
Which of the following accurately reflects the overall trend seen in EHR adoption rates among health care providers
Increase
Which of the following is NOT a fitting quality for a nurse informaticist
Low tolerance for change
Which of the following is NOT a component of Electronic Health Records (EHRs)
Medical billing
Which of these is not one of the stages in Lewin's Field theory? Unfreeze Move Melt Refereeze
Melt Rationale: The three stages of Lewin's Field theory are unfreeze, move, and refreeze. Melt is not a stage of the theory
The P in HIPAA stands for
Portability continuous coverage in case of job loss or change
Which job title is reserved for only an informatics nurse specialist
Researcher
What are key benefits to Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) (Select all that apply.)?
Safety, Saves money Saves time also improves communication, efficiency, better quality care, cost savings
True/False - HIPAA provides guidance to healthcare providers regarding the storage and use of protected health information.
TRUE
Which of the following are examples of EHR government incentives programs (Select all that apply.)?
The HITECH Act, Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA)
Which situation is an example of how a hospital's interoperable EHR subsystems support nursing care
The nurse determines that a patient is likely to be discharged after reviewing daily laboratory results.
True or false: Today, the trend is to require advanced formal academic preparation in the field of nursing informatics
True
True or false; In Lewin's Field theory moving is when the change is implemented
True In Lewin's Field Theory, moving is the stage where the change is planned and implemented. The other two stages in Lewin's model are unfreezing, where the status quo is destabilized to prepare for change, and refreezing, where the change is reinforced and stabilized to make it permanent.
What is a key benefit to a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS)
is its ability to store diagnostic images and scans from multiple modalities, including ultrasounds, MRIs, and CTs, as well as PETs, endoscopies, and mammograms. Patient use of PACS is not supported, and it is the pharmacy system, not the PACS, which provides a means for recording medications.
True or False: As long as an EHR functions efficiently to meet a single department's needs, it is considered sufficient for that organization.
→ FALSE
True or False: The order entry management component of EHRs has the ability to decrease medical errors.
TRUE
A home health nurse uses a laptop computer to document her patient assessments. In order to be compliant with HIPAA regulations, what must be in place? SATA
A plan to prevent the loss of the patient data on the laptop. ,/backup The ability to download apps on the laptop., A fingerprint access panel., / access control pass A screensaver that changes colors rapidly. Encryption - protect pt info from unauthorized access disclsure secure software-antivirus firewall
Which of the following are examples of EHR subsystems? SATA
All of the above clinical documentation clinical decision support system Computerized physician order entry medication management lab info subsystem imaging subsystem patient portal subsystem
With the proper credentials, what role can the nurse with informatics knowledge assume SATA
Systems educator, An IT advocate, Clinical systems coordinator, Researcher Health information manager
How were most of today's practicing informatics nurses prepared for their role
Self learning
The American Nurses Association (ANA) Scope and Standards for Nursing Informatics Practice has established how many standards to be met
Six or eight?
True or False: The components of an EHR make it a more beneficial system than a paper record system.
TRUE
On which area of privacy is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) focused
Patient privacy, Rationale: The area surrounding HIPAA that has generated the most attention has been the privacy and confidentiality of the private citizen who has received health care. The other options reflect areas where such patient information may be housed.
T/F if a healthcare provider violates HIPPA they can face legal ramifications incnluding fines
True Breaches of data security are unlawful and can result in fines or other legal consequences.
When considering health information technology (HIT), what does the term interoperability mean
Two or more health-related service providers can access and share information.
