proficient stage is entered. During this stage, the

to seeing a situation in its entirety (Benner, 1982).

evidence that can provide direction to what is
important in the situation. The proficient nurse or
administrator has a holistic understanding of the
situation at hand, which allows for a more improved
decision-making process (Shirey, 2007).

The ambulatory care nurse focuses on patient safety and the quality of nursing care by applying
appropriate nursing interventions, such as identifying and clarifying patient needs, performing
procedures, conducting health education, promoting patient advocacy, coordinating nursing and
other health services, assisting the patient to navigate the health care system, and evaluating
patient outcomes. The ambulatory care covers a wide range of services that can be offered to
patients that needs medical attention. by integrating the ambulatory care information system in
the nursing practice will really help in making the work easy like the processing of data and
information and the billing & charges and etc. there are advantages of the ambulatory care
information system like first, the access of medical records of patients to health care providers,
second, the nurses will be able to give quality care and improve workflow, reduce medical errors,
and lastly the management and monitoring of the billing, doctors fees, prescriptions and many
more. one of the most important responsibility of a nurse is to make sure that the patient receives
the care that he/she needed and with the use of this system i believe the quality of care can be
given.
