This study investigates the evolving landscape of nursing informatics by conducting a follow-up survey initiated by the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) Students and Emerging Professionals (SEP) Nursing Informatics (NI) group in 2015 and 2019. The participants were asked to describe what they thought should be done in their institutions and countries to advance nursing informatics in the next 5-10 years. For this paper, responses in English acquired by December 2023 were analysed using inductive content analysis. Identified needs covered a) recognition and roles, b) educational needs, c) technological needs, and d) research needs. The initial findings indicate that, despite significant progress in nursing informatics, the current needs closely mirror those identified in the 2015 survey.
