Nurses play a crucial role in facilitating effective HIE by:
Advocating for Training: Nurses should advocate for proper training on the use of HIE systems to ensure competent handling of electronic data. Promoting Best Practices: By adhering to best practices in data entry and patient information management, nurses can ensure the accuracy and completeness of shared data. Engaging in Policy Development: Nurses can participate in the development of policies that govern the use of HIE to ensure that these policies reflect practical, frontline perspectives. Emphasizing Patient Education: Educating patients about the benefits and security measures of HIE can help gain their trust and consent for data sharing.
