Johnson & Johnson Innovation Career Analysis

My journey in health IT began quite serendipitously more than a dozen years ago. I 'm sure many of you have this same shared experience. A mentor said to me one day, 'hey Jack, I think you 'll be good at this, do you want to go to San Jose to help us with user testing for a new project with IBM? ' Ever since that faithful day, I had been involved in shaping how clinicians interface with information technology and I 'm proud to have played a part in the transformation of health care delivery for my organization.

Partners HealthCare, which was created by major contributing hospitals and medical facilities in the Northeast, initially began as a way to focus on the patient needs; however, the company soon found themselves separating from their initial goal. There was more than one problem identified within the realms of the company. There are three main issues that this case study produced. The first outlying issue is called Alert/Warning Fatigue (Davenport, 2013). This derives from alerts that were placed in the system to warn doctors of notices that could be anything from mixing prescriptions to simple notifications that most doctors already knew or was not in their field of

Primary care practioners must develop collaborative teams, that have practioners in the hospitals, clinics, and home. The field of informatics will be utilized to teach practioners data sharing, telemedicine, patient monitoring, patient triggers at point of service, and research data on patient outcomes and maintainence. With the addition of millions of people who will now have medical insurance, the need for primary care providers has increased the demand for APN’s in all areas. We will need additional educators and professors to teach at universities to educate more APN’s. The information technology that is required for the advanced tracking of medical information has created a great demand for APN’s in Informatics. “ telehealth is expected to reach 1.8 million Americans annually by 2017, according to the market research firm InMedica,

Patients Like Me (PLM) is a patient generated research network that strives to improve lives and a research platform in real-time that wishes to advance medicine. On this network, individuals can connect with other who has a common illness or condition, and they can monitor and share their own experiences. In PLM, the information progression data is generated about diseases that can help researchers, medical companies, pharmaceutical companies, and nonprofits, and helps create a more effective care, products, and services. Patient experience with treatments and medication are gathered, which allows treatment efficiency and any side effects to be measured and recorded. If People Like Me were to grow without a General Platform, then the network must continue to add on other niche communities as the group has done in previous

Individuals interested in the field of health information technology (HIT) are presented with a vast array of HIT related jobs and professions to choose from, many of which are highly specialized, such as the certified tumor registrar (CTR). A cancer registry is a compilation of all cancer related data on all cancer patients, including their demographics, medical histories, diagnostic findings, and follow up assessments. This information provides health care professionals with the necessary data and tools to successfully develop, implement, assess and evaluate current and future treatments and therapies for the overall goal of preventing and controlling cancer (NCRA, 2002). The registry is also a key tool in providing necessary data to

When accepting a position with Laboratory Corporations of America (LabCorp), I was unaware of just how important what our company does on a daily basis is. Our motto is Innovation, Quality, and Convenience (LabCorp, 2015). LabCorp’s story is about all of the hard work and dedication that goes into diagnosing someone correctly from something as simple as an allergy or a life-threatening disease. A story is something that is true, repeated, and emphasizes something with particular value (Kinicki & Williams, 2013). Innovation is the backbone of my organization. With breakthroughs in Science happening every day, LabCorp is committed to being a state-of-the-art testing facility. We are constantly looking for new ways to test illnesses- one of the

In observation, (Fahnestock, McComb, & Deshmukh, 2013) stated "Information technologies are transforming the way healthcare is delivered. Innovations such as computer-based patient records, hospital information systems, computer-based decision support tools, community health information networks and new ways of distributing health information.” (p.3.2). In the sector of delivering healthcare using technology, has made it easier for healthcare professionals to access medical records, digitization of prescriptions and view test results. With the use of high-performance devices being used in the hospital, helps to make the jobs of healthcare professionals a little easier. As well as relieve anxiety from anxious patients that may be awaiting lab results to come back. Therefore, IT devices and services has been and continues to be a tremendous help and game changer for the healthcare system. However, there is still a lot of work to be done to help shape and reform the healthcare

With the new advancements in technology, mHealth has been supported by many physicians and patients. In the health care industry, it can be difficult to obtain an overall view of the patient’s health. How many times has

The future trends in health care are limitless. From using applications that perform EKG’s to robot-assisted surgery, the rapid expansion of technology applications in health care is astounding. Advancing technology also pushes the boundaries of health care in its ability to integrate health care information. The integration of health care information is critical to the effective, efficient delivery of quality care in a now fragmented health care system. This paper will assess how the internet or any new forms of electronic communication can be used as an external delivery source of communicating patient-specific information, address the impact of distance delivery on health care, how these communication issues impact health care today and
