This helps in dealing to the problems and disease of patient effectively through developing new
practices and approaches in practices. Originally the nursing informatics is known as medical
computing which is developed in 12950 to recorded the medical reports of all patent in a single
database to integrate the functions efficiently. Different type of leadership style also developed in
order to direct, supervise and transform the nursing staff of organisation through pushing them
beyond the boundaries an react effectively to emergency services in order to increase changes of
treat the patient faster from sufferings.
SUMMARY
In this particular report application of nursing informatics are discussed along with the
analysing influence of this computer information system. In this various advantage of
informatics are studied in order to analyse the achievement in higher efficiently in the delivery of
services. The various advantage over the application of informatics in practice of healthcare
organisation are described in this particular assignment (Greenhalgh, Howick and Maskrey,
