NURS 8210 Week 2 Discussion 1: Professional Role Development

“Nursing research involves much planning and attention to details, yet novice and seasoned nurse researchers often overlook the day-to-day operations required to conduct research studies. Project management is a set of iterative steps that can facilitate the process of conducting nursing research” (Rew et al., 2020).

As you begin working on your nursing informatics project, consider how this project will plant the seed for your future work (in and out of an educational setting). How might what you do in this course lend itself to what you will need to do in nursing practice on a day-to-day basis? Why might it be important to consider this now versus later in your education or practice?

Throughout this course, you are tasked designing a nursing informatics project. This project is steeped in project management concepts to drive your work.

For this Discussion, you will explore why this approach might not only will assist you in this course, but how it might assist you in nursing practice beyond your studies.

Main Post

Hello everyone,

Techniques vary with the stage the project is in with the first phase being initiation and planning. According to Wysocki (2019), Effective project management begins with a thorough initiation and planning phase. Two crucial techniques in this phase are needs assessment and stakeholder analysis. Conducting a needs assessment involves gathering information about the problems and requirements of the target population. For example, if the project involves developing an electronic health record (EHR) system, understanding the specific needs of end-users such as nurses, doctors, and administrative staff through surveys and interviews is essential….
