Tuesday, March 22nd, 2005Cedars Sinai learnt it the hard way. A quote from the Washington Post article……
“For every doctor, nurse and executive here, there is a different explanation of what went wrong. The technology, created in-house, was clunky and slow. Only a fraction of the 2,000 doctors with privileges at the hospital were involved in developing the system, even though they faced a dramatic change in the way they practiced medicine, from jotting notes on a clipboard to logging onto a computer to type in their treatment and medication orders. Training was insufficient, and administrators opted for ……. a “big bang” implementation rather than switching one ward at a time.”
