Audience
The audience for Physician EMR E-Learning Course is any clinician that follows the workflow of a physician including students. This includes physician assistants (PAs) and nurse practitioners (APNs). Our challenge is to provide contextual learning for a multitude of specialists including surgeons, radiologists, anesthesia, ophthalmologists, obstetricians and oncologists. Since we have an EMR that is frequently updated, we need to somehow address basic functionality and hope that it provides for application to the real world and its constant changes.
Course Description
Two types of courses are currently offered, online and Instructor led, with another, blended, being discussed for future use.
The online course was originally created 6 years ago because of the need to train so many new employees at high peak times that coincide with our medical schools and nursing program start times. The physician course has had one major renovation since but because of our LMS, we were limited on what we could improve. Some our limitations include lack of audio since our server does not support it. Creating for both remote use with audio and onsite close-captioning involved more design time. We found technology issues involving the amount of loading time, connectivity and other issues related to our LMS : amount of users on the server and the size of each lesson without audio files.
The Inpatient Physician Online course has 16 EMR demo lessons, each related to performance objectives. We also created 4 EMR Practice lessons with feedback related to the objectives. The Inpatient Physician course has 4 EMR simulated assessments that are performance tasks based on the objectives.
The Inpatient Course is a pre-requisite for the Ambulatory Physician Online course. The Ambulatory course has 19 EMR demos, 3 practice lessons and 3 assessments. The Ambulatory course is created by a different team than the Inpatient course so there are some difference in format.
