Today 12/12/2014 - 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm Tomorrow 12/13/2014 - 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm "What is being done to address the overall slowness of our system? When I am at 915, when I click on a patient's name it will take up to 15 seconds before the hour glass resolves and the screen loads. Then it can take 6 seconds or more to navigate between different parts of the chart. Also when I click on one area of the chart, a different area opens up, adding to the time factor. Sometimes I will have to click on "CPOE" for example, several times before the actual CPOE will open up. By this time it is almost a minute. If these are known problems for Centricity, what is being done to address this and when can we expect to see resolution?"
Lisa, There were 2 parts to your question 1. Slowness - Time it takes to navigate charts is one of the known issues. However, we are monitoring the data and analyzing it to see if there is anything we can do to improve the performance. It takes time to get it right, just like it took time get it right with Centricity 10 2. Known Issues - Centricity Engineers are aware of those issues. We will have to wait for them to resolve those issues and send out the updates to all clinics and hospitals using Centricity. Vital Sign form will have a new tab called "Education". This tab is replacing
1. preciously used ".ptck" 2. diet and education check box in patient instruction. New button has been added to OB vital sign. It is says "entered by" and it prints out your name and date. "Diet and Exercise" checkbox has been removed from patient instructions CCC form Some changes have been made to "Peds Immunization" flowsheet and "KPHC immunization" handout.
pneumococcal #5 and Hep A have been added. |
