I've been keeping tabs on the TIGER initiative, too. What a great thing for nursing! I would love to be a participant. Does anyone know how to make that happen?
Greetings Eileen,
Follow the link to the TIGER website, click on the "Contact Us" tab and fill in the online form asking how you can get involved. There is still much work to be done related to the TIGER initiative and there still are available slots on the multiple work groups that are tackeling the tasks of standardization and interoperability. If you that does not work I have several of the leaders' contact info.
Thanks - This is exciting! I'll let you know how things work out.
