This is an opinion paper on the role of the hospital-l based nurse educator and the relevance of Informatics training for that position. The term "Nurse Educator" (NE) is used here describing a non-faculty position in a hospital or facility that deals with staff development of nurses. The standard roles for Informatics Nurses tend to be in the Information Technology (IT) department where exposure to practicing nurses is limited and decisions can be made without nursing practice input.

This paper will discuss how having nurse educators prepared in informatics can strengthen nursing and patient care. Examples of problems where the nurse educator can use appropriate informatics solutions are outlined.
