Correct Answer: You are an ER nurse in a quiet suburban community that hasn't had many public health crises during your 10-year career. It is Christmas, and you have been asked to be on duty during the holiday. All other staff members are out on holiday. At 10:00 a.m., you receive a phone call from a family with symptoms of hemorrhagic fever. Within minutes, you receive another call from another family across town that has similar symptoms. Within an hour, you have five reports of families or individuals with symptoms of hemorrhagic fever throughout town. How would your hospital's informatics system help you cope with these reports and begin problem solving? It would track the locations of the reports and synthesize the data you collected about the incidents. It would automatically contact and conduct detailed interviews and full assessments of the victims. It would allow you to contact each patient and determine how well he or she is doing. It would contact other employees to come in to the hospital and help. working through low health and computer literacy levels in GSGH patients Correct Answer: As a nurse informatics specialist at Good Samaritan General Hospital, you have been seeking ways to engage patients more in their health care after they leave GSGH. Survey after survey has demonstrated that GSGH patients are among the least health and computer literate in the area. You decide to develop an at-home personal health tool that can be installed on any personal computer. It allows patients to keep track of their health and communicate closely with their providers after their hospital stay. You are excited about the opportunity and potential of this new development. Upper management is also very excited and has thrown their support behind it after seeing it test very well. However, what hurdle are you most concerned about overcoming prior to the implementation of the system? making the program compatible for both Macs and PCs obtaining GSGH management's support for the move working through low health and computer literacy levels in GSGH patients getting your program to work correctly Tailored Correct Answer: As a nurse informatics specialist at Good Samaritan General Hospital, you have been developing patient education resources that direct information to patients based on their health needs. Not every patient receives the same type of information. John Wilkinson is a frequent patient at GSGH due to his COPD, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes. He now has been admitted for bipolar disorder.
