Description

The use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) has grown over the past few years and is now seen as an essential part of primary and acute patient care and case management. Boards of Nursing retain responsibility for public safety and need to be aware of current practices, policies and patient safety enhancements with the use of EHRs.

This engaging program will provide nursing regulatory bodies with:

  • A general understanding of information contained within the EHR,
  • A discussion of the policy implications and patient safety enhancements with the implementation of an EHR and
  • A live demonstration navigating the EHR
