CNIA

Nurses are the key to the implementation of informatics in all areas of Canadian health care. We are the largest group of health professionals, we are technologically savvy, and have the clients' best interest at heart.

FROM THE CNIA

The goal of the CNIA is to be the voice for Nursing Informatics in Canada. The CNIA is the culmination of efforts to catalyze the emergence of a national association of nurse informaticians.

The CNIA exists to help all nurses from across Canada to learn, share, research, and create informatics-related projects and experiences that can help to boost the competencies, theory, and practice of informatics on a national level.

The mission of the CNIA is to be the voice for Health Informatics in Canada. Recognizing the importance of the work the CNIA is undertaking, the Canadian Nurses Association has granted affiliate group status to the CNIA.
