Assignment: The Impact of Intrinsic Motivation   Reflect for a moment on your nursing career. About what are you most passionate? When do you feel you are at your best?

Assignment: Application: Adoption of New Technology Systems

As a nurse, you can have a great impact on the success or failure of the adoption of EHRs. It is important for nurses to understand their role as change agents and the ways they can influence others when addressing the challenges of changing to a drastically different way of doing things.
