Introduction-Module 1

Intro: I am truly struggling in the web based world! I can't even get to my own blog site by myself.
My life is too boring, I work full time and go to school full time and raise a family! I am very funny and like to keep things light!!!
For excursions I work, sleep, and wish for free time! I am in the Pediatric program and will graduate in 2012. I love this program!!!

WHY DO I NEED TO LEARN ABOUT INFORMATION MANAGEMENT:
I know nothing about it. Managing information sounds like a great idea! I am sure in the future it will help me in the clinic setting with my practice. My practice will improve with the extra knowledge gained from IM.

Describe what is happening related to IT in your clinical practice setting?
We have started computerized charting on our unit and medication management through the computer program. The use of doctor notes on the computer. X-rays on the computer and their analysis, which improves the patients comfort levels. LAB results via computer helps with the timeliness of the results.
