Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario

Introduction

This guideline was developed to enhance the capacity of:

1. Individual health care executives and clinical/non-clinical leaders; nurses and other health professionals in practice, education, administration and informatics; and health care organizations in general to optimize their involvement in the procurement, design, implementation, adoption, and optimization of an eHealth solution.

 2. Health care executives and clinical/non-clinical leaders, educators, and administrators at the organization and system levels to effectively identify and address the eHealth education needs of the health care workforce.

3. Government agencies, administrators, and policy-makers to identify and implement relevant evidence-based policies that support health system transformation and nationwide health information exchange by addressing known barriers to eHealth adoption at the national and jurisdictional levels.
