According to Cooper (2017), data is basic and has no significance. Data that has undergone processing is known as information. Thus, it can answer questions such as who, what, and when. Put differently; information is data that has been cleaned or sorted out and, in a state, to complete or fulfill a particular aspect. Knowledge refers to the use of facts and data to answer the “how” question. Finally, wisdom refers to how individuals can judge or discern what is right or wrong. As such, wisdom is only a human state because computers cannot make ethical decisions. An example of how these terms relate to professional practice includes how data may connect to various unknown health conditions in a neighborhood while information will entail accurate figures of different diseases like diabetes and asthma in a population. With the information, healthcare providers can make health decisions such as health promotion to reduce the health condition in the affected population. Another example is knowledge, where information that shows a high incidence of diabetes among the elderly can result in the application of evidence-based interventions and wisdom applied through respecting the rights and privacy of patients, thus leading to improved patient outcomes. According to Information Resources Management Association (2018), information literacy is the ability to access, organize, evaluate, and utilize information from various sources. On the other hand, computer literacy is the possession of knowledge of technology, enabling one to manipulate computer hardware or software. Furthermore, information literacy may involve applying knowledge, while computer literacy can entail control of information but cannot apply it. Demonstration of computer and information literacy levels for healthcare professionals includes enhanced competency when providing care for patients, understanding diversity, and coordination in interacting with an employee. Furthermore, utilizing different materials and modes of delivery to appeal to different learning styles when educating clients or their families. References Cooper, P. (2017).

Mary In your peer responses, offer suggestions and other thoughts for your colleagues to consider. 2, Responds to this post in half a page use different reference to response please Data is information, facts, or numbers collected to be analyzed to explain or support a phenomenon or outcome. Information is the collection of data or facts that provide knowledge or understanding of a phenomenon. Knowledge is the putting together of the information and having it make sense, and the ability to apply it. And finally, wisdom is the ability to utilize the knowledge and know when to use the information for optimal outcomes. As DNP students, we are embarking on our journey to evidence-based projects. We are collecting data, information and sharing knowledge with others to increase wisdom in our everyday practice. An example of using data and information in professional practice is the remote monitoring transmissions of patient pacemaker data. Data comes in with a patient having increasing arrhythmias. A phone call to the patient confirms he is taking his antiarrhythmic medications as recommended, but he still has more arrhythmias and is symptomatic. Knowing that the antiarrhythmic is not working as well as it should, impacts the decision to bring the patient into the office to change the medications to a stronger one. The data and information helped guide the clinician in the decision-making process. Another example is with Press Ganey patient satisfaction surveys and Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) surveys which provide data about patient satisfaction and outcomes. The data brings about the further evaluation of processes within the hospital. These evaluations bring about process changes to improve outcomes (Abu-Ghname et al., 2021; Al-Amin et al., 2016). While the terms computer literacy and information literacy have been used interchangeably, they are not the same (Ainley et al., 2016). Computer literacy of the healthcare provider (HCP) is the ability to understand and use computers and technologies at a basic level (IGI Global, 2022). This use would be in various formats, from emails, PowerPoint presentations, professional works, and electronic health records. Information literacy is the ability to locate, assess, organize, apply and communicate information in various formats for valuable knowledge (Badke, 2019) A provider’s computer literacy impacts how he can communicate with the patient through technology, whether through the secure patient portal, encrypted emails, or web-based calls or visits. It also affects their ability to pull data from the electronic health record (EHR) to manage their clinical conditions. Most EHR can pull outside records for review as well. A provider’s information literacy can impact the information and teaching they provide their patient. They could provide additional resources through recommended websites, educational videos, or other teaching materials available in different formats that could assist the patient education process. Computer and information literacy with interaction with employees can occur in diverse ways. At my facility, there is a “physician handoff” and a “nursing handoff” tool where we can communicate within our EHR some essential information about a specific patient for a given shift. Other interactions could be acknowledging others for a job well done through a particular link or reporting an issue if needed. Many interact with employees through email if they do not see them frequently, yet still be able to communicate vital information promptly. References: Abu-Ghname, A., Davis, M. J., Shook, J.
