For this December 4, 2024, webinar, Dr. Tamara Macieira of the College of Nursing, University of Florida will be speaking on NIC/NOC, NANDA, and AI. As you are aware, the University of Florida, thanks to the leadership of Drs. Gail Keenan, Tamara Macieira, and their faculty teams, is a global leader in nursing diagnoses and its related technology.
It is very possible that a high-tech university e.g., University of Florida College of Nursing, is in a prime position to establish a Global Standardized Language Interoperability Network, which would move forward the field of interoperability even as it preserves the identity of the various nursing classifications. To gauge interest in such a network, contact Dr. Macieira by email at tmacie2@ufl.edu if you or your university is interested.
NANDA-I representation within FNLM is important, most especially among 1.) Interoperability, database extraction, clinical informatics, AI/ML/LLM national and global experts; 2.) those interested in learning more about these topics; and 3.) those interested in communicating with a community of experts across standardized languages.
Membership in FNLM varies as do the membership fees.
- Three ways to donate, including becoming a member (https://www.fnlm.org/donate/)
- Three levels of individual membership. Note that more expensive membership fees entitle members to a greater role within the FNLM. Perhaps universities could cover membership costs, or an outcome-oriented university grant could be written to cover the cost of more expensive and more powerful memberships. Access: https://www.fnlm.org/product/individual-membership/.
- Organizational membership. Access: https://www.fnlm.org/product/organizational-membership/. Scroll down this site (https://www.fnlm.org/our-members/) to see the list of university members.
Membership in HL7 is equally important. A special thanks here to former NANDA President Dr. Kay Avant for her longstanding contributions to HL7.
Thanks for accessing – feel most free to share with all, other NANDA-I members, clinicians, colleagues, school/college of nursing mailing lists, etc.
