What can nursing specialty organizations do to support an information infrastructure for nursing?
Specialty nursing organizations play a pivotal role in educating their members and providing clinical resources related to structured vocabulary. Helping nurses understand the significance of utilizing structured vocabulary can support clinicians iintegrating that content into practice. Specialty organizations’ journals and newsletters can publish information about structured vocabularies and clinical exemplars regarding their use. Specialty organizations should evaluate existing terminologies for their usefulness and not develop their own vocabularies or terminologies. Gaps in the existing terminologies should be identified and reported to the appropriate vocabulary developers. Specialty organizations should also monitor efforts to create an information infrastructure for nurses and keep their members informed about these efforts.
