Homework: Information Systems in Healthcare RUA- Technology Presentation Guidelines
Topic: Electronic Healthcare Records PPT
Purpose
The purpose of this homework is to (a) explore and present an information technology used in the healthcare system that supports the patient care experience and (b) develop the skills of team communication, collaboration, and production.
Course outcomes: This homework enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:
1) Describe patient-care technologies as appropriate to address the needs of a diverse patient population.
2) Identify patient care technologies, information systems, and communication devices that support safe nursing practice.
3) Discuss the principles of data integrity, professional ethics, and legal requirements related to data security, regulatory requirements, confidentiality, and client's right to privacy.
4) Discuss the value of best evidence as a driving force to institute change in delivery of nursing care.
Preparing the homework
Follow these guidelines when completing this homework. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions.
1) For this team project, students will be assigned by faculty into teams of three to five individuals depending upon class size.
a) Teams will receive a project grade based on assessment by the project rubric, which will then be applied to everyone's grade for the project minus points for lack of participation in the development or presentation of the project.
b) The team leader will make all dropbox submissions for the course so that the:
• TurnItIn similarity index will not pick up inadvertent self-plagiarism from another team member's submission.
• Course faculty will have only one submission to review and grade.
2) The PowerPoint presentation will be shared with the class in the Community Café and the actual presentation occur during a Community Café.
a) The due date for uploading the presentation and the team presentation will be shared by your course instructor via an Announcement in online course.
3) Prepare a PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes between 25-30 slides, excluding the title and reference slides.
a) Speaker Notes
• Outline and "script" the presentation for online students.
• Online students' speaker notes should include the name of the student who researched and presented the slide information.
• Campus students follow the guidelines of your course instructor.
4) Each team will be assigned a healthcare information systems technology (e.g., Computerized Physician Order Entry, Electronic Health Record, Electronic Medical Record, etc.) by the course instructor. For that technology, include the following discussions in the presentation:
a) Introduction of Technology and Team - 20 points/8%
i. Title slide identifies the assigned technology.
ii. Title slide introduces team members. Presentation provides an introduction that:
• Describes the technology
• States a purpose for use of the technology in healthcare
• Establishes the professional tone for the presentation
b) History and Current Use
i. Describe significant findings that prompted the development of the technology.
ii. Discuss the history and current use of the technology in healthcare.
iii. Describe three goals of this technology's implementation.
c) Impact on Healthcare and Nursing
i. Discuss impact on professional nursing practice related to:
• Patient safety
• Quality of care measures/monitoring
• Risk management
• Privacy, confidentiality, and security of patient data
• Effect on population within the region
• Ethical practice
• Compliance with legal and regulatory mandates
• Organizational infrastructure and operations
ii. Support discussions with examples & data from current evidence-based resources.
d) Three Advantages and Disadvantages
i. Patient's perspective (e.g., patient outcomes, safety, patient/family satisfaction)
ii. Nurse's perspective (improves/hinders job efficiency/safety)
iii. Healthcare organization's perspective (regulatory compliance, financial, etc.)
e) Controversy, Issues, Challenges, and Regulatory Implications
i. How might issues surrounding the chosen technology be addressed/solved?
ii. Provide statistically significant data or evidence to support your findings.
iii. Summary
iv. Key points
v. Discoveries/surprises
vi. Lessons learned by the team
f) Team Project Evaluation
i. Place & discuss the following questions and responses in the slides(s) following the summary slide and prior to the reference slide(s).
ii. How did the team function well? (e.g., team strengths, team balance, etc.)
iii. What problems did you have interacting as a team? (e.g., team weaknesses, outside challenges, technology, etc.)
iv. What specific actions would you recommend to future teams to help them interact, function, and collaborate successfully?
