Standardizing language and data concepts are common problems informatics nursing specialists face when implementing projects and EMR systems. Determine if your organization uses a nursing nomenclature recognized by the American Nurses Association. Determine if data concepts such as Length of Stay (LOS) are standardized across the organization. Do these terms clearly and comprehensively represent nursing care and nursing practice at your work setting? Why or why not? If your work setting does not use a formal nursing nomenclature, apply these questions to the terms that are used. Second, consider your database project. Could an ANA-recognized nomenclature be used in your database? Why or why not?
