Explaining the EHR to Your Patient (graded)
You are a nurse or nursing student in a hospital and using a computer on wheels to perform an admission assessment. Your patient is 87 years old, alert, oriented, and

explain that the “box” is a computer and why you have it in the room? What can you do to help her understand the need for the computer?

Week 3 Discussion DQ 1 & DQ 2
DQ 1
Opportunities for Improvement with Usability and Interoperability (graded)
Usability and interoperability are major issues to consider in the development of Healthcare Information Systems (HIS). How does your organization address these
issues? Does the transfer of information occur smoothly, or do you need to re-enter data from one application to the next, e.g., patient information from the emergency
room does not transfer along with the patient who is admitted to the critical care unit? Or, the patient is discharged and the home care nurses have to “start from scratch”
as they prepare the patient’s plan of care.
DQ 2
Library Search for Telenursing Resources (graded)
This week’s lesson points out key concepts in searching the National Library of Medicine’s PubMed/MEDLINE database, the Chamberlain Library’s EBSCO/CINAHL
database, and Google Scholar. The lesson this week directs you to links and resources on the basics of searching these three information sources. The tutorials are very
helpful. You are strongly urged to view them prior to posting.
Locate one article in each of the data sources to prepare your scholarly paper due during Week 4, Telenursing…Is It in Your Future? Briefly summarize each article in
your post.

meaningful use? Remember to cite your resources that you will use to provide information.
DQ 2
Your Patient has a PHR (Personal Health Record)… Now What? (graded)
Patient portals and patient health records (PHRs) are common place now. You might not have been exposed to them in nursing school or even in your own medical office
appointments. However, the portals and PHR are something to be familiar with! What are the pros and cons of having a PHR? Would you prefer a patient portal, and
why?
Week 5 Discussion DQ 1 & DQ 2

specific.

Distractors are everywhere. Our cellphones in the pocket, the alarms sounding for multiple different reasons, the ward clerk overhead paging, IV pumps and ECG
monitors beeping; how are we to cope and be able to decipher what is alarming? The repeated sound of an alarm can be annoying to the patient, family, and staff. This
can lead to someone shutting off the alarm. Give an example of an ethical or legal issue that may arise if a patient has a poor outcome or sentinel event because of a
distractor. What does research show on alarm fatigue and cellphone distraction when it comes to patient safety?.
Week 7 Discussion DQ 1 & DQ 2
DQ 1
Use of Personal Communication Devices in Patient Care Settings (graded)
How can the use of the nurse’s personal communication device(s) impact patient care either positively and/or negatively? Are there ethical and legal implications? Does
your facility or school have a policy on personal use of cellphones while at work/school? Locate an article, and share a brief summary of that article with your classmates.
DQ 2
Safe Nursing Care…Is There an App for That? (graded)
Andrea was working in the cardiac catheterization lab when a young woman undergoing a cardiac ablation started to have small seizures. The nurse noticed these and
asked the physician to look at the patient. The physician asked Andrea to get his smart phone and film the seizures. This video message was sent to a neurologist and
he could tell from the video the part of the brain from which the seizures were emanating. This is one example of using technology. Does this connote safe care? Is there
an app (application) for that?
If you could develop an app to enhance safe nursing care, what would it be like?
