    Medical Records, the onsite patient Pharmacy, and the nursing staff are all users of AlexiCare. AlexiCare has shown to have many strengths in its use to the nursing and physician staff. They are able to view their patient’s charts from anywhere. If a patient is transferred from one floor or department to another, the chart is immediately accessible electronically.

    A lost chart can be very frustrating while trying to deliver seamless care to a patient. Paper charts are easily misplaced. Since there is only one, if a single provider is using it, no one else of the medical team can view the chart. The EMR can be viewed from any computer with secure internet access or on a handheld device. When the internet is down, a downtime view only access is available.…

    Today we will discuss what clinical flow sheets are and the purpose of utilizing them in the health care industry. We will also cover the importance of the problem list for documenting symptoms of patients and anything else that may be relevant to their current condition. Studies show that pictures have been far more effective when it comes to explaining minor details or even workflow than just written outlines of the steps taken to accomplish task in the health care industry.

    Using computerized management systems in this facility would increase quality of care by allowing us to access patient data from any location, view that data in real time, receive auto alerts for new and abnormal results, protect the security of our patients by having user defined access. As far as the patient care part of it, there would be less risk of medication and transcription errors because of the bar code scanning, care plans would be established and on the system so they could be enforced and patient care would be within the patient’s chart. These things would all result in saving time and being more efficient, which would increase quality of care. (Meditech, 2010)…

    Informatics and technology is a competency I believe will be important to the future of nursing. Quality patient care is having the correct patient information available in one place. Electronic medical records (EMR) make it possible to access information from one health system to another. Flowsheets within the EMR help document patient assessments, fall precautions, vitals and patient education. But when checking off tasks on the computer it is imperative to have patient interaction. Taryn L. Hill stated, “Nursing as a profession has an obligation to interact with clients in the moment” (Caring and Technology by Taryn L. Hill, PhD, MSN, RN, Para 2).…
