E – Education
R – Reform
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Focused awareness with nursing stakeholders in
three areas
Develop a U.S. nursing workforce capable of using
electronic health records to improve the delivery of
healthcare
Engage more nurses in the development of a national
healthcare information technology (NHIT) infrastructure
Accelerate adoption of smart, standards-based,
interoperable technology that will make healthcare
delivery safer, more efficient, timely, accessible, and
patient-centered
TIGER: BACKGROUND
2004:
President Bush supported adoption
of electronic health records
2005: Small group of nursing leaders and
advocates met and resolved to strengthen
the voice of the nursing profession in the
transformation of healthcare for 21st
century
Organized TIGER Initiative (2005)
TIGER: BACKGROUND- NURSING ENGAGEMENT
2006:
Interactive summit, “Evidence and
Informatics Transforming Nursing”
Created a vision for the future of nursing
that bridges the quality chasm with
information technology, enabling nurses
to use informatics in practice and
education to provide safer, higher quality
patient care
TIGER: BACKGROUND CONT.
Focus on nursing, however recommendations
apply to interdisciplinary health professions
Aim to develop a nursing workforce in the US
capable of using electronic health records (EHRs)
with hope to improve care delivery
2009 Obama signs American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act- $19 billion for health
information technology (HIT)
Funding by Dept of Labor and Dept of Education to
increase HIT workforce
TIGER: BACKGROUND CONT.
Capital, technology, resources, and people needed
to create an informatics-aware healthcare
workforce
Healthcare provider competency with EHRs
(requires basic computer skills, information
literacy, and understanding of informatics and
information management)
Education reform- ≈3 million currently practicing
nurses may not be competent with HIT
TIGER VISION
“Our vision is to enable nurses to use
informatics tools, principles, theories, and
practices to make health care safer, more
effective, efficient, patient-centered,
timely, and equitable by interweaving
enabling technologies transparently into
nursing practice and education, making
information technology the stethoscope
for the 21st century”.
TIGER EXPECTED OUTCOMES
Publish a Summit report, including Summit
findings and exemplars of excellence.
Establish guidelines for organizations to follow as
they integrate informatics knowledge, skills, and
abilities into academic and practice settings.
Set an agenda whereby the nursing organizations
specify what they plan to do to bridge the quality
chasm via information technology strategies.

demonstrate nursing excellence in using
CRITERIA FOR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Maintain knowledge of cutting edge practice
and for management of clinical teams
Areas of focus:
Evidence
Content
Technology
Standards
9: CONSUMER EMPOWERMENT & PERSONAL
HEALTH RECORDS
33% of adults are confident in their physicians
an other HC providers having a complete and
accurate picture of their medical history
Need for consumers to take a more active role
in their health care
Personal Health Record (PHR)- internet based
CONSUMER EMPOWERMENT & PERSONAL
HEALTH RECORDS
PHR: promotes patient empowerment and
supports the patient’s engagement in their own
health care
Nurses obligated to become families with the
technology
Objective of TIGER: make information available
to nurses about PHRs and to encourage
inclusion of this content to nursing curricula
CONSUMER EMPOWERMENT & PERSONAL
HEALTH RECORDS
Ways nurses can impact the adoption and use of
consumer empowerment strategies
PHRs: easy to use and accessible to consumers
Developed an inventory of usability principles for
patient-focused applications
Barrier of PHRs: lack of interoperability with other
systems
National Health IT activities have focused on identifying
and supporting the adoption of standards for PHRs
CONSUMER EMPOWERMENT & PERSONAL
HEALTH RECORDS
President Obama supports greater use of
technology in healthcare
Included
significant funds in the economic stimulus
package to increase adoption of PHRs
High prospect of achieving PHRs that are
complete, accessible, interoperable, and
secure
Reducing Medication Errors with Electronic Medical
Records and Bar Coding Technology
Bar Coding Video
While caring for a premature neonate the nurse administers many
intravenous medications throughout her shift, including heparin 10
units/mL. The adult dose of heparin 10,000 units/mL is in similar
packaging and labeling. The two very different doses of medication are
easily confused due to similar labeling and packaging. To prevent
medication errors we observes the 5 Rights of Medication administration:
checking:
Right Patient
Right Medication
Right Dose
Right Route
Right Time
But, to err is human. We increase patient safety and lessen
the risk of medication error with preventative strategies, such
as electronic medical records, medication bar coding, unit
dose labeling and smart (programmed pumps).
Discussion Points
Informatics Competencies
Review
The Informatics
Competencies as outlined
in the TIGER initiatives is a
plan for “all practicing
nurse and students to have
the necessary skills to
practice nursing in the hightechnology environment
emerging in all avenues of
healthcare.” (Hebda and
Calderone, 2010)
For All Nurses
Entry and retrieval of data in
electronic medical records
Analyze and interpret
information as part of care plan
Use informatics applications
designed for nursing practice
Implement policies relevant to
best practice
For Students and Beginning
Nurses
Basic computer literacy and
desktop applications such as
e-mail
Access data and document
using computerized patient
records
Access and apply evidenced
based practice
Support patient safety using
information technology
For Experienced Nurses
Build upon informatics knowledge gained
Become content expert in system designs
Appreciate relationships among data patterns
Exercise clinical judgment based on observed data trends
Safeguard access to patient data
Work toward improving information management and
communication
As a student seeking degree and certification as an Advanced Practice Nurse
What are some of the ways we support patient safety initiatives while integrating
informatics technology? In what ways do nurses or physicians resist change in
patient care?
How can we work toward safeguarding patient data and health information in
electronic medical records? What challenges does this present in your nursing
practice?
