Educational Goals

Who is the audience?

I think students in HI or med school who want to understand EHRs are the audience. Off course, this might be through a tutor/instructor/educational program in/outside universities. @rhoyt mentioned that we could focus on informatics students, but in the future could be medical, nursing or other students too.

@yehster

What sort of lessons/curriculum need to be taught?

@yehster

Another possible teaching scenario/use case would be in Clinical Skills Tests (similar to the USMLE Step 2 CS).

I think you highlight an important point. We need to create additional teaching/training material that will guide how the students to understand EHRs using LibreHealth. So, these would be really useful for students to self-teach, as well as instructor guided material.

@yehster

Slice by slice review of CT scans from web pages also seems problematic. I presume radiology departments have was to share interesting cases internally, but could be build a better collaborative educational environment?

This needs a real DICOM viewer. Tools that are used by radiologists in actual practice. But we could also have radiology reports that are interpretations of studies (Xray/CT etc) come back to the EHR and those are shown to the clinicians. So the educational EHR could show this workflow, with order (EHR) → image capture (PACS) → reading (DICOM viewer) → interpretation (RIS) → radiology report (EHR)
