AAMC participating in research study on the Electronic Health Record — need your input!

Posted on October 19, 2015 by Monica Mewshaw

AAMC is participating in a multi-site research study with Baylor Scott & White Health (Texas) and MedStar  Franklin Square Medical Center (Maryland) conducted by Rand Obeidat, an Information Systems  doctoral student at UMBC .

The purpose of the study is to evaluate nurse’s belief and readiness for changes related to the electronic medical record. Your participation will provide staff nurses with an opportunity to contribute to scientific knowledge, and possibly lead to more successful transformation change efforts at AAMC and other similar health care systems. This study is open to all direct- care RNs (spend greater than 50% of their time providing care to patients) and who are employed full or part time (minimum of 20 hours per week) at AAMC who use the EHR.
