A week in the life of an Informatics Lead Nurse: Friday

Last day of the week and my favourite one as it is a "clinical Friday" for me. It is important in my role to be visible and easily accessible to staff in the clinical areas. I do this to keep up to date with their process, understand the workflow and listen to subject matter experts and end-users on where we can improve and optimise, making sure that we have the ward to board (and vice versa) lines of communication open.
