Informatics Systems Name Institutional Affiliation                             Informatics Systems Nursing informatics involves the incorporation of nursing practices, information sciences, and computer technology in the development and maintenance of medical data and systems to support the medical practice and thus improve patient care outcomes (Khajouei & Abbasi, 2017). Through technological advancements, healthcare workers are capable collecting, analyzing, and leveraging information more effectively; thus influencing the manner in which resources are managed, care is delivered, and how teams operate. It aids in the identification of potentially detrimental prescription errors and treatments, improving patient data confidentiality, and refining patient record retrieval (Khajouei & Abbasi, 2017). Moreover, this aids in the analysis of mass quantities of information collected regarding patient outcomes and care in determining the best treatment approach based on differing situations. An excellent example is the Electronic Health Record that refers to the digital version of the patients’ paper charts; real-time patient-centered records. This system replaces the conventional paper version storage thus…

However, both actions influence people to perform or act in a given manner. Power is an individual ability to influence people to do or act in a certain manner, and it is based on wisdom and expertise. In contrast, authority is a legal responsibility bestowed on a person to command and give directions generally in a formal way. Authority is donated based on position and office held by a person. The central government represents the whole country, and it is tasked with national security and asserting authority across the boundaries of a nation.

A hydrograph is plotted to show the flow rate (rate of flow. The rate of flow refers to the discharge against the time taken. According to Štajdohar et al. ( 2016),  a hydrograph indicates a plot showing the discharge (instantaneous) against time. The units used when referring to discharge, or the flow rate is either M3 (cubic meters) or cubic feet in one second. A hydrograph is critical when it comes to hydrology because one can look at the meteorological and the physiographic conditions that may be present in a particular watershed. The hydrograph is also related to factors like surface run-offs, hydrologic loss, and groundwater flow, and also interflow. It is, therefore, remarkable since it indicates how any basin may respond when it rains continuously. The hydrographs also describe how a river discharge responds to rainfall. We have several types of hydrographs, and they include: Bank full refers to the amount of Discharge Rivers are capable of holding when it rains before flooding. Slow floods- these kinds of hydrographs get created in cases where rivers flow for very long periods. Rapid…
