EHR Concerns and Recommendations

In your organization, in relation to the Electronic Medical Record (EMR), you have identified four areas of concern which are not related to issues of privacy, confidentiality, or security. These are (a) nurses are constantly using (inappropriate) workarounds with the Bar Code Medication Administration (BCMA) system; (b) nurses are experiencing Alarm Fatigue, they are routinely disregarding prompts from the Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS); (c) Nurses are resistant to the implementation of a new EMR system and there is a need to get buy-in from the nurses; and (d) Hospital staff do not understand the various phases of Meaningful Use (MU), including the financial impact of non-compliance with MU, which is also causing confusion among staff in following MU requirements. Selecting any one of these (whichever is of greatest interest to you) as the first step towards an evidence-based practice solution, write a paper on one of these topics of concern, of your choice, to include the sections noted below; the value of each section is noted by percent, the entire project is worth 100 points.
