Personal experiences have provided a unique glimpse of how powerful this dynamics is when done well with full inclusion of stakeholders. In the majority of instances however stakeholders are often ignored or only provided what the healthcare systems can deliver with little if any customization or configuration (Buntin, Burke, Hoaglin, Blumenthal, 2011). This is because customization and configuration is expensive and time-consulting to complete and is one of the leading causes of nurses being ignored during each phase of the SDLC model (Buntin, Burke, Hoaglin, Blumenthal, 2011). When this occurs a system fails to align to an organization and a significant amount of time and money are wasted.

When nurses aren't involved in this process, the entire foundation of a system will be incomplete and often based only on assumptions about what is needed; the system designers won't actually know what the requirements are because they haven't involved healthcare professionals. The rationalization sit hat inviting too much feedback from nurses will drive up customization costs (Buntin, Burke, Hoaglin, Blumenthal, 2011). In fact the opposite is true. Building the functional requirements and specifications of nursing professionals into requirements ensures each succeeding stage of the SDLC-driven development stays consistent.
The second stage of the SDLC model, which is design, is critical for ensuring a high degree of system adoption in that
Healthcare organizations that define their Health Information Technology (HIT) initiatives and plans from the perspective of the internal customer or user of the system first have significantly greater levels of system adoption, process improvements, greater impact on positive patient outcomes as well (Buntin, Burke, Hoaglin, Blumenthal, 2011). From personal experience it is clear that including the healthcare professionals' feedback in each of the five phases of the SDLC model leads to systems that better align to patient's needs and streamline information delivery and knowledge management. Personal experiences have provided a unique glimpse of how powerful this dynamics is when done well with full inclusion of stakeholders.

In the first phase of the SDLC Model, which is Requirements Analysis, is when a systems' functional specifications are defined and the system development frameworks are designed (Moore, Nolan, Gillard, 2006). When nurses aren't involved in this process, the entire foundation of a system will be incomplete and often based only on assumptions about what is needed; the system designers won't actually know what the requirements are because they haven't involved healthcare professionals. The rationalization sit hat inviting too much feedback from nurses will drive up customization costs (Buntin, Burke, Hoaglin, Blumenthal, 2011). In fact the opposite is true.

The other dimension is related but is definitely separate. Some end-users are not only uninformed on how to administer electronic health records, they may actively resist and otherwise undermine the setup and these people need to be identified or even removed if they will not play along. It cannot be denied that, when done properly, electronic health records allows for such a seamless and beautiful result. As such, people that
Electronic Health Information Successful Implementation of Electronic Health Information Technology Over the last several years, the federal government has been encouraging health care organizations to embrace the adoption of electronic information technology. This is taking place through the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH). At the heart of these provisions, is to provide a variety of organizations with the resources they need to update medical records and other
Electronic Health Record (EHR) Bearing the everyday evolution of the technology used in hospitals and the Healthcare sector in general, there is need to understand the concept of EHR. This paper undertakes to divulge what EHR is, the components, the advantages that it brings to the Healthcare department in general as well as the complications or loopholes that may come with it and suggestions on how this system can be used
(Starbucks Corporation: Public Company 1982-). This model continues to sustain Starbucks growth today. An additional strategy Starbucks employs is licensing. Currently, the company has more than 900 licensed store locations at places including airports, Barnes & Noble bookstores, and grocery and mass-market retail chains such as Target, Albertson's, and Safeway stores. The company also has licenses with United Airlines and Marriott to exclusively serve Starbucks coffees. The benefit of this
The relevance of electronic health records (EHRs) cannot be overstated when it comes to the enhancement of better and safer care for patients. This is more so the case given that they enable quick access to the records of patients, as well as enhance the safe and secure sharing of medical data. However, it is important to note that the efficient implementation of EHRs could be hindered by a number
New Electronic Health Records System Nurse Facilitator preparing a team on implementation of new electronic health records system Electronic health record systems are a compilation of health information details of the individual patients stored in digital systems (Greenhalgh, 2005). The records are shared across the different health care institutions. The sharing of this information occurs via the network connections, where the internet facilitates this connection. An electronic health system includes information of
