- How does nursing data quality relate to decision support?
Nursing data quality is very important to decision support. Accurate data and pertinent information gathered during an assessment and then charted appropriately is essential to making quality decisions. Without sound data to build your decision on, then like we discussed in the previous questions, your decision is going to be based on experience and intuition which is not the most accurate way to make decisions in clinical practice. This data is also essential in the development of the decision support tools. In order to help us make decisions, we need to know what kind of data we are gathering and the best way to obtain that information to get consistent and accurate results.
