Target Audience:
Researching, purchasing and implementing an information system for your hospital requires a multi-disciplinary approach that includes physicians, nurses, administrators and information systems personnel. Hospitals that have been most successful in implementing and maintaining effective systems have involved all team members from the beginning.
When implementing a system, no one individual can handle all the issues to be addressed and challenges to be solved. This symposium brings everyone together on a level playing field and will foster the team approach.
