Abstract. This article explores the role of health information systems (HIS) in the development of nursing competence. The authors discuss the significance of using MIS in modern medical practice and their impact on the level of training and competence of nursing staff. The article analyzes the impact of MIS on improving the effectiveness of nurses, as well as their role in ensuring patient safety and quality of care. Special attention is paid to various aspects of MIS utilization, such as electronic medical records, data management systems, telemedicine, and other innovative technologies. The authors also explore the issues of preparing nurses to effectively utilize MIS, including mastering relevant skills and competencies. The authors also explore the issues of preparing nurses to effectively utilize MIS, including the development of appropriate skills and competencies. The article covers the topics of staff training, adapting to new technologies, and implementing best practices for optimal use of MIS. The research presented in the article has practical implications for healthcare professionals, healthcare administrators and managers, as well as for training programs and continuing education courses for healthcare staff. It also contributes to the discussion on the impact of technology on the development of nursing competencies in modern healthcare. The source offers a number of recommendations for improving the education of nursing staff in information technology and the effective use of MIS. These include improving curricula, developing specialized courses and training materials, and implementing competency assessment techniques to ensure a high level of training and adaptation to changing technological requirements. The article also emphasizes the importance of change management and staff support during the implementation of new information systems to facilitate effective transition to new technologies and improve the overall competence of nurses. Overall, this article provides valuable research material focused on current challenges and opportunities in the field of medical informatics and medical staff training. Its results can be used to improve educational and management practices in healthcare, which ultimately contributes to improving the quality of medical care and ensuring patient safety.
