NURS FPX 6416 Assessment 2 Technology Needs Assessment Summary and Implementation Plan Patient Safety and Health Care Outcome Benefits

ve solutions to the concerns of financial sustainability and home visit acceptance (Ong et al., 2018). Moreover, Lee and Holland-Hall (2021) argue that patients may utilize portals to communicate with their doctors in between appointments, exchange information, and establish trust. 

Changes to an Organizational Information System

Nurses and other healthcare professionals were among the five people who participated in a needs assessment meeting to discuss the challenges they are encountering in the existing Vila Health information system. Attendees at the meeting voiced worry that patients’ health is being put at risk since no one is checking up on them after they have been discharged. According to the nurses, patients with diabetes need constant monitoring of their symptoms and blood sugar levels, but it is difficult for them to make frequent trips to the hospital. As a result, Vila Health should adopt a remote patient monitoring technology that could help patients who are unable to make regular trips, while also benefiting the nurses by allowing them to easily keep track of their patient’s health.

With the use of patient portals, patients may get in touch with their doctors, schedule appointments, and check up on their medical history and prescriptions from anywhere with access to the internet.

Comprehensive Project Management Implementation Plan

Goals and Milestones

Remote patient monitoring equipment and user-friendly patient portals are two technologies I want to implement as project manager for Vila Health’s information system overhaul. The personnel at Vila Health will be able to better monitor their patients after they have been discharged due to RPM and Patient Portals. Financial advantages include increased revenue, less staff burden, and more patient engagement, all of which contribute to improved health outcomes owing to the use of patient portals.
