Written Assignment – Informatics

For this piece of your project, you will find opportunities to become more familiar with informatics. Using the Internet and your module resources, complete the .com/niassess/plan.html”>P.A.T.C.H Assessment (.com/niassess/plan.html”>http://nursing-informatics.com/niassess/plan.html) scale. You will use the assessment results to answer the questions in the worksheet below. ATTACH a filled and the actual assessment sheet for me as well please. Name: Date: For this assignment you will complete the P.A.T.C.H. Assessment scale. YOU DO NOT NEED TO SUBMIT THE ACTUAL ASSESSMENT. You will use the assessment to answer the following questions: What was your personal score on the P.A.T.C.H. assessment? Do you agree with this score, or do you feel more or less comfortable with computers than your score indicates? Support your answer. What is your average level of computer literacy? That is, for the nursing informatics competencies (Part A), did you score mostly As, Bs, Cs, or Ds? Do you agree with this score, or do you feel you are more or less computer literate than your score indicates? Support your answer. Begin to develop a plan of action to reach your desired level of computer literacy. From section B of the P.A.T.C.H. assessment, select at least 5 topics that you would like to focus on. THIS LIST MUST INCLUDE NURSING INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND KEEPING CURRENT WITH NURSING INFORMATICS TRENDS. Briefly discuss (one paragraph each) what you will do to develop your desired level of literacy with these topics. You do not need to complete the nursing informatics competencies goals (final section of P.A.T.C.H. assessment) for this assignment but KEEP THE ASSESSMENT SHEET YOU FILLED OUT, as you will use it in module 11 as well.
