Abstract :
As nurse leaders, you are keenly aware that health care is an information-intensive enterprise. As such, knowledge is a strategic asset to the health care organization. To be of organizational benefit however, knowledge cannot reside solely within the individual; rather, it needs to be disseminated. Knowledge can be gained from organizational processes, products, policies, culture, various forms of documentation, and information systems used within a business. It exists for all aspects of the organizationʹs mission: clinical care, education, research, and administrative practices.
