I really enjoyed reading your ebook. Thank you again for the discount on it. The book helped me understand the different roles of nursing informatics better and helped me figure out which area I want to focus getting into and gaining prior experience in. It’s an easy read and I was able to understand it.

I am very interested in taking some of the mini online courses you’ll be doing! And I’m going to try asking my manager if I can volunteer for chart auditing 🙂

thank you again for the guidance you’ve provided in this book. It made it feel a little less overwhelming trying to figure out where to begin when getting into the field.

The book has great information. I wish I had this info when I was looking for a Nursing Informatics role a few years back. It would have helped me identify job postings related to NI and understand the roles better to help me ace my interviews. Very good resource for those just starting out or wanting to enter the field.

...and I can help you:

...so that you can start getting ready to launch your Nursing Informatics career, starting from where and who you are as a clinician.

Eleven years ago, I was a bedside nurse.

I was working in a great hospital with wonderful co-workers.

Yet, I felt that I wanted to do something different – something more in line with my skills, interests, and natural strengths.

I wanted to become an Informatics Nurse.

I believed that I could truly make a valuable contribution to patients, other clinicians, and the Nursing profession in this specialty – if only I was given the chance.

The problem was, I just didn’t know where or how to start.

Then I took the first step, and began an amazing journey that surpassed even my own imagination.

Since then, I’ve worked as:

An electronic health record (EHR) Application Analyst at a wonderful academic medical center in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
A Project Consultant at one of the top five academic medical centers in the U.S., who was able to work remote for up to 80% of the time.
A Health Information Program Manager with expertise in medical record regulatory standards and policy, managing a portfolio of more than 100 Nursing-related compliance reports and coordinating multiple enterprise-wide committees, projects, and work groups that all work together to ensure optimal health information integrity for the organization.
