A number of recent studies have reviewed this activity and three factors stand out:
People trust doctors to deliver high quality health information, and information from the internet discussed with doctors, who are the "health information experts" often leads to changes in treatment.
For a quick simple search there is nothing wrong with doing rapid searches at www.google.com or www.yahoo.com ,and review the results from at least the first two or three pages.
The second quick and dirty approach to undertake routinely is to go to a couple of quality information sites as your first stop beyond the search engines.
I recommend www.wikipedia.com the amazing open source encyclopedia with great breadth and depth, but which still has a level of inaccuracy, and www.medlineplus.gov which is a Government run site and is, in my opinion, the best overall consumer health site on the Internet.
The two main professional databases are: "Medline" at the NIH and "Psycinfo" ( at the American Psychological Association
If not, it is probably because your staff isn’t happy or a strong bond is missing among your employees.
It would be wise for you to create a healthy environment for a successful future and better employee relations.
This will help your employees to be more efficient, productive and loyal to your company.
This is why we encourage employers to adopt corporate wellness programs.
They’re one of your most important assets and it is your responsibility to take care of them so that they work better and produce excellent results.
Amazing Benefits Of Our Corporate Wellness Programs Are:
Especially, the patients whose diagnoses need cross-specialty treatment coordination and substantial medical information management get the maximum benefits from HIS.
Even you can get alert notification whenever there are any issues related to patients’ health.
For example, the healthcare providers can receive an alert from program security checking about the harmful effects patients may experience on any particular medicine if they have that without being prescribed.
This way you can avoid committing any serious mistake that happens due to the lack of details available during making the decisions.
By collecting and saving patients’ information, including diagnosis reports, medical history, allergy reactions, vaccinations, treatment information plans, test results, etc., Health Information Systems provide the healthcare providers a complete and orderly framework that helps them interact with their patients in a better way and eventually deliver care to them in a more efficient way.
Also, you can take decisions after focusing on previous performance details.
Addressing the health needs of new and emerging communities is the key focus of Multicultural Health Week to ensure equitable access to health care and health information for these communities.
In the launch event, NSW Health’s Chief Health Officer, Dr Kerry Chant stressed the importance of the 2019 Multicultural Week theme: Health Literacy of new and emerging communities.
Health literacy refers to how people understand information about health and health care; how they apply that information to their lives; how they use it to make decisions and act on that information,” Dr Chant said.
New and emerging communities are defined as communities which are: • Recently settled compared with more established culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities; • Smaller in number of residents but with significant increase in the past 5 to 10 years; • Lacking sufficient infrastructure and resources compared with more established CALD communities; • Experiencing significant barriers in accessing health care and/or poorer health outcomes; and • Isolated in their geographical area.
Examples of new and emerging language groups across the state include communities who speak Bangla, Kurdish Kurmanji, Mongolian, Nepali, Tamil, Tibetan and Urdu.
Lisa Woodland, Director, NSW Multicultural Health Communication Service (MHCS), urged all health organisations to routinely include consumers, families and carers from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds when developing, implementing and evaluating programs, projects and resources.
