Through her efforts, NI was professionally recognized as a new nursing specialty which required its own standards, academic programs, and educational materials which she helped initiate. She also promoted distant learning technologies and developed computer-based information systems for clinical nursing practice including the research and development of the Clinical Care Classification (CCC) System. She is an Informatics specialist and consultant, who currently supports and implements the CCC System primarily in hospitals or other healthcare facilities around the world. She also serves on the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) S & I Framework-subcommittees: longitudinal Coordination of Care (LCC), and Transitions of Care. Further, she serves as an Adjunct Faculty member at several universities teaching online courses that focus on nursing terminologies, database design, and clinical nursing practice documentation in NI and HIT systems. Dr. Saba s accomplishments in the nursing informatics movement are impressive. As early as 1981, she initiated the 1 st National NI Conference at National Institutes of Health. Also during that year she organized its first NI sessions and NI working group at the then leading healthcare conference Annual Symposium on Computer Applications in Medical Care (SCAMC).

She was instrumental in initiated the formation of the ANA Council for Computer Applications in Nursing (CCAN) where she not only served on the board, but also chaired for several years. This committee was the driving force that promoted NI as a new nursing specialty. It created its own Scope and Standards of Nursing Informatics Practice, certification program, criteria for NI classification systems, and represented professional nursing in the emerging technology initiatives. During her 20 year tenure, she served at Georgetown University School of Nursing as a Distinguished Scholar where she taught and integrated computer technology in the academic programs.
