Using ICNP for Nursing Documentation and Outcome Evaluation

This presentation will demonstrate how the use of the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP)—a standardized terminology language—embedded within an electronic documentation system can enrich nursing documentation and automate data collection and extraction to support continuous quality improvement. 

By attending this presentation, participants will:
1.  Gain increased awareness of how the use of ICNP can demonstrate the value of nursing practice.
2.  Learn how to integrate ICNP within electronic documentation systems.
3.  Understand how nurses can contribute to the expansion of ICNP and its adoption across Canada.
