Although an increasing number of nursing information systems, applications and tools have been developed and applied, research and development related to nursing informatics (NI) is still not well established in Taiwan. The main impediment to NI development is the lack of integration and coordination between healthcare enterprises. To facilitate research and development on NI, the Taiwan Nursing Informatics Association serves as a forum and platform for cross-sectional policy dialogue, and the sharing of clinical, educational and administrative experience. In this article, we survey the development of NI in Taiwan, and report on a comparative study of NI development between Taiwan and other countries. Finally, we identify future research directions and development strategies for NI in Taiwan.
