Use of HIT Systems to Improve Organizational Outcomes
Introduction
Frequently, nurses play a significant task in promoting public health. Such roles often
consisted of medical nursing practices, consultations, follow-up treatments, patient education as
well as disease prevention. For a long time, this nursing activity has tremendously improved the
existence of healthcare services, decreased chronic disease symptoms, enhanced cost-efficiency
and increased clients’ experience of the healthcare services. Traditionally, the aim of the nurses’
health promotion has been on illness prevention and transforming the behavior of people
concerning their health (Taylor et al., 2014). Nevertheless, their roles and responsibilities as the
health promoters have become more complex because health professionals, particularly, the
nurses possess multi-disciplinary knowledge and skills as well as the experiences of the health
promotion in their respective nursing practices. Therefore, to cope with these complexities in
their nursing practices, revitalizing the nursing care system within various nations, including the
United States is quite significant to accomplish high quality, accessibility as well as the effective
healthcare for every American citizen. As a way of revitalizing the basic care system, this essay
thus focuses on the implementation of health IT and how the nurse director uses the information
from such HIT systems to advance the organizational outcomes (White, 2015).
Literature Review
According to White (2015), the efficient utilization of health IT systems by the basic care
practices to assist in quality improvement can facilitate such practices to advance their capability
of delivering high-quality healthcare as well as enhancing the patient health outcomes. White
(2015) further states that quality improvement in healthcare system entails using data as well as

feedback in; first, tracking and assessing the performance with time. The second is using
feedback and data in making essential modifications in procedures of improving the healthcare
performances by the nurse executives. With health information technology, it can support the
quality improvement in the healthcare system in several ways by data extraction as well as
analysis allowed by tools like registries, health information exchange, and electronic health
records.
White (2015) further illustrates that these health information technology tools that sustain
primary care quality improvement allow the clinical practice to quantify, track and then share the
care delivery performance measures and finally monitor the way refinements to medical
workflow procedures both external and internal influence the general casualty experience and
healthcare coordination between the care setups, while seeking to limit the costs and enhance the
patient medical outcomes.
