Healthcare Informatics and Emerging Technology
For this assessment, you are to put yourself into the position of a nursing specialist working with your chosen POI in a leadership position such as supervisor, preceptor, or director. You are asked to develop a presentation used for orientation purposes for new registered nurses working in your healthcare system with your chosen POI. This presentation should be specific to the role of healthcare informatics and emerging technology in relationship to your POI. The assessment submission will be in the form of a Microsoft PowerPoint® presentation with accompanying speaker’s notes.
Successful completion of the assessment will include the following:

- Current Emerging Technology in Healthcare: Definition and Relationship to your POI (i.e.,: telehealth, telemedicine, electronic health records [EHRs]): 2 slides
- Innovative Ideas (2–3 slides): Creation of an application — propose a new application (“app”) that could be used with your POI. Start by looking at current health applications and consider what is missing and what would be helpful to your patient population of interest. Then create a proposal for your own. Be creative with this Assignment. Think outside the box and dream big. Use the textbook readings and your search for current healthcare apps to help guide you in this process.
Possible app created could be some like an app for a mobile that allows patient to breath into it so it can calculate oxygen, pulmonary volume/force and give environment reports to climate condition that effect breathing.
Include the following:
- Explanation of proposed app
- Justification for need of this type of app
- Proposed uses for the app
- Accessibility of this app: How would your POI get access and be able to use this?
- Conclusion/summary slide
