RECOMMENDED RESOURCES

Consumer Health Solutions: A Teaching and Learning Resource for Nursing Education (CASN)

The Consumer Health Solutions: A Teaching And Learning Resource For Nursing Education (CHS resource) is intended to support the integration of digital health content into undergraduate nursing education, as outlined by the CASN Entry-to-Practice Nursing Informatics Competencies for Registered Nurses. The CHS resource is a companion document to the Nursing Informatics Teaching Toolkit. Some examples of the use of CHS can be found in the Toolkit. However, as this area of digital health has expanded significantly, and as it is critical to nursing care, CASN saw the need to create a specific resource on CHS. This document, like the earlier Toolkit, has been created primarily to assist nursing faculty in integrating and teaching CHS-related content in their courses. The CHS resource may also be helpful to nursing students at all levels, direct care nurses, nurses in government and policy roles, and educators of other health professional groups.
