American Nursing Informatics Association role survey.
A descriptive study, using a survey approach, was conducted among 48 American Nursing Informatics Association (ANIA) member respondents to determine the nursing informatics role among professional nurses working in the specialty. Members were asked to complete a survey regarding their current position, educational and work experience, continuing education, and work challenges. Although the ages of the informatics nurses parallel the national, range, most have been in the field of nursing informatics for 2.5 to 5 years and in their current position only 1.5 to 2 years. Job responsibilities and challenges indicate common issues and concerns that have implications for the specialty of nursing informatics and nursing in general.
