Informatics and Nursing

Kristi Sanborn Miller, Jeanne Sewell · 7th Edition · ISBN 9781975220662 · Wolters Kluwer / Lippincott Williams & Wilkins

Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Informatics and Nursing (7th Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and NCLEX-style practice questions for all 16 chapters.

Overview

Informatics and Nursing (7th Edition) by Kristi Sanborn Miller and Jeanne Sewell is a core text for nursing informatics courses, and it moves quickly from foundational computer concepts to the way technology now shapes patient care. This study guide is built to follow it chapter by chapter, so you review in the same order your instructor teaches — from professional roles and career pathways, through networks, mobile health, and telehealth, into the data lifecycle of finding, collecting, analyzing, and disseminating information, and on to interoperability, electronic health records, standardized nursing terminology, and patient privacy. It pulls out the high-yield concepts and the connections between informatics tools and patient safety so you can study efficiently for exams instead of re-reading every chapter. It is an independent, aligned study companion designed to reinforce the textbook — not the textbook itself and not a reproduction of its content.

Aligned with undergraduate and RN-to-BSN nursing informatics courses, supporting course midterms and finals as well as informatics concepts tested in the Next Generation NCLEX.

Your employer's coverage doesn't fully protect you. A personal RN policy from NSO runs about $100/year and is what most nursing boards recommend on day one.
