1. Identify a potential data base you can imagine emerging from data within the healthcare electronic systems within your organization and describe its’ potential to improve nursing practice and patient outcomes. Relate the data to quality of care and patient safety. (note: for example EBSCO that includes CINAHL, MEDLINE, etc..)
2. Conduct a web search for recognized and credible healthcare database resource r/t to patient care outcomes that may be used in a nursing leadership role. Share the web link along with a brief description of it. Describe an actual or potential use of the database identified from the search. (for example, https://joannabriggs.org/)
3. Submit a brief, one paragraph summary of a relevant and credible article that validates the significance and usefulness of data bases in the provision of healthcare and the improvement of patient outcomes. (note:provide example)
