Module 2

One way to be involved in information systems in your work place is to let the information technologists and program designers know how things are working.

We started a fairly new system for EHR when our clinic opened four years ago.  It was a challenge needless to say.  As we used the system we found things that worked great and things that didn't work so great.  We talked with the IT people and program designers and were able to make changes that made the system work better.  This system is updated frequently, and not always for the better.  We are still able to communicate our concerns and sometimes able to make good changes.

Hi everyone!

Welcome to my blog.  Hopefully I'll have something interesting to say before the semester is over!

I've been a nurse for 25 yrs and have done a little of everything along the way.  People often ask me which area is my favorite - I tell them all of them!  I've learned and grown in each job I've had.  Each job has made me a better nurse and brought me to where I am today (well, maybe not quite here to the blogging stuff!).

I use technology all the time, but this is my first attempt at blogging.  I'm sure I'll learn a lot from everyone else.  See you guys soon!
