Week 7: Evaluating the HISS and Future Recommendations
Health information systems provide a variety of multi-faceted information to provide organization with the ability to determine areas of strength and weakness.
Using the Measure Evaluation Health Information System (HIS) Assessment Tools Database (https://www.measureevaluation.org/his-strengthening-resource-center/his-assessment-tools/index.html/histoolssearch) website,
choose one assessment tool for health information systems from the website for evaluation of the organization you are presently in practice.
- I have chosen the Data Demand and Information Use in the Health Sector Strategies and Tools.
- Organization I am currently in practice: Long-term care/Nursing Home.
- Using the tool, assess the organization to the best of your capability.
- Provide a summary of your evaluation.
- Next, select one standard from the American Nurses Informatics Association and determine the alignment of the organization based on the evaluation information you gathered using the assessment tool.
- Provide two QSEN aligned recommendations for the organization to use for improvement of the present health information system.
- What data would you use from the evaluation to support or not support alignment with the standard?
