This article mentioned voice dictation. I worked in a clinic where this feature is being used. However, there were many issues with spelling errors and incorrect data reported that added additional work to the provider. They would have to go in and try to remember exactly what they intended to say. I foresee this being convenient for physicians but also know that it can cause some setbacks if the dictation is not completed correctly. ]]> 2022-01-24 04:07:40 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2007933143 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2007953021 The expectation of nurses and technology has grown over the years. Now more than ever nurses are expected to obtain a skill set that allows for appropriate usage of technology. It is important for nurses to be able to navigate through EHR systems to aid in the coordination of care. This helps improve patient outcomes and quality of patient care. ]]> 2022-01-24 04:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2007953021 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2007977676 It is interesting to see how much of an impact digital health has had on nursing and on healthcare. Even through the pandemic there have been many changes to our healthcare system today. Our healthcare relies on this digital transformation. I truly believe that even when this pandemic is over a lot of what has already been implemented will continue to be used in future healthcare. ]]> 2022-01-24 04:44:23 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2007977676 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008113853 ^{COVID has been a stressful experience for everyone. Our healthcare has taken a great hit and so have have healthcare personnel. It has changed healthcare in many different ways and led to burnout. Implementing QSEN competencies may be beneficial in increasing both staff and patient safety. Now that employee shortages have increased greater interventions need to take place to assure that all patients and staff are protected.} ]]> 2022-01-24 06:41:22 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008113853 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008159016 Health informatics has become to play a crucial role in identifying the impacts of COVID-19 on healthcare. A lot of misinformation is constantly available to the public whether its through the news or social media. Utilizing the T.I.G.E.R initiative can help individuals make informed health care decisions based on true/accurate information. The more accurate information is released the better overall healthcare decisions can be made. ]]> 2022-01-24 07:15:51 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008159016 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008204042 Meaningful use and interoperability work hand in hand. Each aspect has allowed for improving clinical decisions. Meaningful use has allowed for the integration of patient centered healthcare. It brings together the processes and workflow that involves healthcare practitioners to utilize pertinent electronic information. In doing so, they are then able to improve delivery of care and allow for better overall patient outcomes. ]]> 2022-01-24 07:44:18 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008204042 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008253024 Interoperability has allowed for easier access to patient records reducing the risk of repeat testing and imaging. The data collected helps guide what areas need to be improved based on the review of health trends. This could be anywhere from increasing patient safety to creating care models. Once identified, necessary changes and improvements can be implemented. ]]> 2022-01-24 08:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2008253024 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009821407 A short and informative video - discussing the impact on big data in healthcare. Big data has individualized healthcare to gather information from patients of different ethnic minorities, elderly, children, and patients with multiple diseases. Data is generated from patient care studies to form successful treatment plans. The more the treatment plan is geared specifically to the patient and their condition, the greater likelihood that the patient will obtain better health outcomes. ]]> 2022-01-24 21:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009821407 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009847615 A simple and straightforward video that simplifies the DIKW hierarchy and the importance each levels contains. Very interesting concepts related to the DIKW hierarchy. Going up the pyramid allows for synthesis of information and a platform to further build on. While going down the pyramid allows for the breakdown of information into individual components in order to be properly analyzed. ]]> 2022-01-24 21:25:46 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009847615 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009854876 It is overwhelming to see how much of our lives are impacted by the "IoT". In almost every aspect of our lives smart devices have taken over. We are able to track our sleep, our activity, our heart rate, and even run an EKG if needed. Technology is slowly but surely taken over healthcare. I'm curious to see what more will be become of technology and how it will impact us in the future. ]]> 2022-01-24 21:32:16 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009854876 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009880385 The intent of the HITECH Act is to increase patient quality care and outcomes. This has allowed for the implementation of meaningful use within EHR systems. This does present physicians with many challenges. One of the biggest issues in my opinion is the increase in pressure to meet ALL objectives/requirements to ensure receiving appropriate reimbursement. Although there has been an increase in patient outcomes, having that kind of pressure does take away from patient care and the physicians ability to be fully present with the patient. ]]> 2022-01-24 21:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009880385 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009893055 I do believe that our electronic medical record systems have improved healthcare. It has become easier to access current medical records including, recent visit summaries and lab/imaging results. Patients are able to communicate with their physicians via patient portals through secure messaging. Electronic medical systems has helped improved the ability for patients to effectively manage their own care. ]]> 2022-01-24 22:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2009893055 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2010109335 HIE has allowed for great benefits in reducing medication errors and preventing the possibility of repeat testing. It has made it easier for medical staff to access necessary patient data that is pertinent to their current health conditions. Having access to this information at all times helps reduce potential medication errors, duplicate testing, and limits readmissions. It also allows for improved diagnoses and treatment plans.

This article goes through are pros and cons to the rate at which data is collected. The timing of the data collection is not always the issue. However, as long as it is relevant to the issue at hand quality results can still be obtained. ]]> 2022-01-25 23:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012374368 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012389952 This class was the first time I really looked into gamification for different health issues. I think its important to provide individuals with different options especially when it comes to learning something about health. A "hand-out" is not always the best option. Allowing people to play a game and be hands on helps increase the changes of retaining information that will benefit them the most. ]]> 2022-01-25 23:39:06 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012389952 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012404037 This is a great ted talk that discusses the effect of COVID19 on telehealth. COVID19 brought forth a rise in the use of telehealth. Telehealth visits have drastically increased over the past two years. It has been a great way for individuals especially those immunocompromised to continue receiving healthcare. I believe it has been a benefit to both patients and providers during this challenging time. ]]> 2022-01-25 23:57:14 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012404037 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012651725 It is interesting to learn about how quickly telehealth has taken over in healthcare. I was not aware of the flexibility allotted with telehealth visits. For example, physicians who are licensed in Washington can see a patient who lives in California or how patients do not need to be established with a provider to have a telehealth visit with that specific provider. It definitely provides more convenience for patients. I'm curious to see how telehealth will influence my career in the future. ]]> 2022-01-26 03:19:26 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2012651725 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2014477095 I have enjoyed using the patient portal throughout my healthcare. It has made things so much easier and more convenient. There are many issues I have been able to address via my patient portal. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic it has brought me great relief. I know it has for others as well, especially those who are caring for individuals that are immunocompromised. ]]> 2022-01-26 20:24:44 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2014477095 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018681851 The Kaiser Family Foundation provided a generation of a data set related to the rate of individuals who received the COVID-19 booster as well as the the impact COVID-19 has had on individuals. According to the latest dataset information 77% related feeling tired and frustrated from the limitations of COVID-19. The rates of individuals to get the booster is slightly increasing. However, many individuals are reporting that whether vaccinated or not all individuals will end up getting COVID-19 at some point. ]]> 2022-01-28 21:25:20 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018681851 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018699585 Alarm fatigue is something I have personally experienced as nurse and know that many other nurses have as well. Boston adopted a alarm fatigue technique that entailed adjusting manufacturers default settings on alarms. In doing so, this reduced the noise from 90,000 alarms a week to over 9,000 a week. Alarm fatigue is the top technology hazard in hospitals. By reducing unnecessary alarms this will lead to greater patient safety, the ability to spend more time with patients, and overall limit the possibility of alarm fatigue. ]]> 2022-01-28 21:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018699585 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018713876 Healthcare information is a huge target for hackers. Regardless of how much is done to protect the information there has been even more of an increase now with more of our information being online. Some facilities are still using unencrypted emails such as Gmail or Yahoo which allows for easy access to breach of information. Appropriate actions need to be taken place to avoid this from happening. A risk assessment can be completed which makes an action plan to address issues that are placing a facility at a higher risk for breach of healthcare information. ]]> 2022-01-28 22:04:15 UTC https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018713876 Hanady_Nakkour https://padlet.com/Hanady_Nakkour/2n5nv9xm9z790yga/wish/2018730911 This short video and simple video that talks about the impact of COVID on the Cyber Security industry and healthcare. There has been an increase up to 86,000 of high risk malicious websites. This threat is leading to many challenges especially in healthcare. Healthcare with private and personal information are the highest forms of ransomware attacks because they have the greatest financial gain for the attacker. I have seen firsthand the increase in hacking of information.
