Whilst computers and technology are linked it is useful to view them in this chapter separately by year. This can be done by viewing the technology time line in the computer history museum and by searching under key categories relating to the technology. For example one can search under categories such as components, networks , computer software and languages.

Nursing Pioneers & Computer Use

In many instances the early pioneer nurses in informatics were poorly paid and had inadequate study leave and in many cases left the profession to pursue careers as systems analysts.

However, some of the pioneers remained and we acknowledge some of them within the following sections – nursing education, nursing administration, nursing care and nursing research .

Introduction to Nursing Informatics 2014 - 4th EditionChapter 4

Nursing Education

• Mariann Drost Bitzer (1963)• First simulation in nursing obstetrics

• Judith Ronald, University of New York (1970’s)• CAI in Nurse Education in the 1970’s

• Diane Skiba, Boston College• Co-ordinating Nursing Informatics

Courses

• Virginia Saba, Georgetown University• Co-ordinating Nursing Informatics

Nursing Care

1992 Norma Lang & June Clark – if we cannot name it (nursing) we cannot control it, finance it, research it or put it into public policy.. (In relation to nursing language).

Kathryn Hannah first nurse elected to COACH (Canadian Organisation for the Advancement of Computers in Health) .

Maureen Scholes – The London Hospital Real-Time Computer Project – resulted in The introduction of a hospital communicationsystem that provided patient administration services,laboratory services and radiography services using 105 visual display units in all hospital wards and departments.

Elizabeth Butler – Kings Hospital, LondonEngaged in developing and implementing the computerised nursing care plan system for the Professional Medical Unit and for the nursing care plan system for all wards and specialties in the 500 bedded hospital.

Christine Henney, Ninewells Hospital, DundeeInvolved in the design and implementation of a real time nursing system

Joy Brown and Marjorie Wright, York Hospital OntarioBoth worked as systems co-ordinators and were actively involved in designing, coding and implementing the computerised patient care system at their hospital.They were also responsible for training on the system.

Nursing Research

• 1960 working with ANA (American Nurses Association) Harriet Werley identified research on communication and decision making in nursing (1960’s)

• Kathryn Hannah with David Shires in 1980 at Medinfo in Tokyo set up a separate nursing informatics section within IMIA

• Maureen Scholes in 1982 facilitated an open forum on the impact of computers in nursing (London)

• 1981 Virginia Saba established a nursing presence at the symposium on computer applications in medical care (USA)

• 1982 Carol Ostrowski created a nursing profession specialty group - AAMSI (American Association for Medical Systems and Informatics)

• 1983 Marion Ball identified nursing informatics as specialty

• 1988 Harriet Werley and Norma Lang identify the American nursing minimum data set
