ForwardEpic Clinical Content Builder Training – Basic (CLN110) October 14-16
Statement of Need and Purpose
Clinical informaticists make key decisions during electronic health record (EHR) implementation and maintenance process, and they need to understand the implications of those decisions on clinicians and patient safety. To lead the maintenance of an electronic health record, clinical informaticists need to understand key workflows, the language to support key tools, and how to manage the health of a patient population through reports so they can effectively serve as liaisons and builders.
The purpose of this course is to show nursing informaticists who use Epic’s electronic medical record how to configure the software to accommodate patient workflows in general and specialty areas. Specifically, the course will show nurses how to create custom documentation and other tools.
