First EMR MythBusters session

As part of this week’s Transforming Care Forum, we busted ‘myths’ about the incoming Electronic Medical Record (EMR) devices.The Workstations on Wheels (WOWs), laptops on trolleys, tablets and accessories that will be used to access the EMR were front and centre as we were inundated with questions from across the organisation, covering everything from how to clean and charge the new devices, to how we’ll continue to prioritise patient care, while learning the EMR.Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed their ‘curly’ questions. Remember, if you’ve got a question, it’s likely your peers will be wondering the same thing, so don’t be afraid to ask.

What you said:

“This was very informative. Thank you!”

 “Really helpful. I learnt a lot.”

“When can we get rid of all the paper? Bring it on!”

We’ll continue to answer your questions as we move closer to Go-Live. Let us know what you’re thinking; email EMRFeedback@monashhealth.org
