Attention Clinicians: Symposium Supports YOU & Health IT Challenges!

Eithne Reichert, RN, BSN, MN, PMP, CPHIMS-CA, is President & Clinical Consultant with RWI Informatics Inc. and Vice-Chair of the CCF: COACH Clinician Forum Advisory Committee.

If you are a physician, nurse, pharmacist or one of the other tens of thousands of healthcare professionals in Canada, your practice is being influenced, changed and challenged by health IT….some of which is effective and useful ….and some of which is confusing and concerning.

The e-Health 2015 CCF: COACH Clinician Forum Symposium on May 31 is designed specifically to support you, the clinician, with the latest on health informatics – and how it may affect you in your practice – as the use of health IT assists you to improve patient care and support health system sustainability. The symposium hits all the challenges this year – the use of Clinical Decision Support systems, the use of mobile technologies and how digital health solutions affect practice as the health IT becomes more sophisticated.

The symposium is also an excellent opportunity for you to network with other clinicians and share experiences about what’s happening in your world with health IT. This year, the CCF will host a joint lunch break with the Canadian Nursing Informatics Association Conference attendees.

I invite you to share your practice perspective at the symposium or speak with myself or Grant Gillis, Executive Director, Forums & Practices, COACH, at the symposium. The CCF is there for you!

So, please join me for this full day of best-practice sharing, lessons learned, case studies, research and unique opportunities to collaborate. (Note: Earn education credits at this accredited program – watch for details to be posted.). I look forward to seeing you then!
