Ideal system

Read the NAQ article that was posted in the lesson. Knowing what you know from the chapters in this unit (Chapters 9 through 13), discuss the recommendations presented in the article for the Ideal system: Simple, fast documentation with minimal redundancy EHR coordination with patient and family needs and wishes Central source of best practice forms and other resources in a free, vendor-neutral, and accessible library Multidisciplinary collaboration on the design of EHR and CDS systems Data: Standardized, actionable, and interoperable Integration of biomedical devices with the EHR to avoid nurses entering that data Multiple sources of decision support information for clinicians Decision support dashboards Discuss how these recommendations (re: nursing informatics) would affect nursing workflow and meaningful use. Pick and choose some of the ideas from the article and apply them to workflow analysis, system design, and meaningful use concepts from Chapter 13. This will require a bit of thinking, and please do not feel locked into one recommendation. Just make sure to support your opinions with rationales. Feel free to speculate and explore! Enjoy the opportunity!
