Ideally, an informatics department will:

  • Use technology as a means to deliver more effective care, improve efficiency and further clinical practice
  • Maximize user adoption of technologies to obtain optimal patient safety and efficiency benefits
  • Obtain appropriate staff skill mix to meet both the immediate and long-term department and organizational goals
  • Provide thought leadership on current trends and future concepts, particularly how these will impact an organizations operations and care delivery
