Are you currently working in an informatics role?

[FirefighterJimRN]

Yes, as a Product Support Analyst for a Surgical Manager product. My background is in OR Nursing, mostly in the Army, where I also received my nursing diploma. Also am an On-Call Firefighter ( as my username states.)
Thinking about getting a Masters in either Healthcare or Nursing Informatics. Have to check into some programs and see where to go in the New Year!

I am currently an nurse analyst installing a McKesson product at out hospital. We are going live with nurse documentation and Beside Medication Verification (barcode scanning) next month.

My background is Critical Care (20years), military nursing (retired) and general interest in PDAs in nursing (thus my moniker )

I am an IT Professional with programming and networking background. I worked in a hospital for more than two years. I realized that learning Meditech would be a plus for my career. Do you know how and were I can learn it while I do now work in a hospital?

Thanks,

Mohammed

I have been an RN for the past 31 years. I received my BSN in 2006; and I am currently working towards a masters' degree. I work in occupational health nursing; and I'm interested in transitioning into nursing informatics. Can anyone advise me how I can get into nursing informatics. I do not work in a hospital setting, so it's difficult for me to get that experience. Currently, I work for the railroad; and we will be implementing EMR in the near future. Any advice?

Thanks,
Nancie

We are implementing CERNER System, a Kansas City based company but with a branch in San Francisco. They are covering worldwide too from Europe, Australia, Asia to Mideast. We have a couple of applications such as FirstNet (ED), CareNet (Inpatient), RadNet (Radiology), PathNet (Laboratory), Supply Chain (Main stores), ERM (Medical Records) & ESM (Scheduling) up for execution. We are planning to purchase INet for ICU & NICU Units but it has not been approved by the management yet. Three facilities in our city have started implementing the system & we're up next. The system is functioning as expected and most of the users are really grateful to have it.
