👉 Nursing engineering, also known as nursing informatics or health informatics, is the application of information technology to support nursing practice and improve healthcare outcomes. It involves the integration of clinical expertise, information science, and engineering principles to design, implement, and maintain systems that enhance patient care, streamline workflows, and facilitate evidence-based decision-making. Nursing engineers develop and customize electronic health records (EHRs), clinical decision support systems, telehealth platforms, and data analytics tools to ensure accurate, timely, and accessible patient information. By bridging the gap between healthcare delivery and technology, nursing engineering empowers nurses to deliver safer, more efficient, and patient-centered care while promoting continuous quality improvement in healthcare settings.
