In 2017, nursing informatics continues to be at the forefront of health IT conversations. Meaningful Use initiatives drove development of EHR's over the last decade, where vendors and providers tried to strike a balance between the need for data with efficient delivery of care. Now that the majority of hospitals have implemented an EHR, there is focus on maximizing the investment through user engagement, adoption and workflow efficiency.
Join us for presentations from distinguished members of the informatics community, including Kaiser, Providence and OHSU, to learn the latest methods for improving adoption and efficiency of EHR's. Cost is just $10 and will include a free drink ticket. Hors d'oeuvres will be served. To RSVP or for more information http://tinyurl.com/z9by3tx
