Connect Care Updates
The AHS CMIO Editorial Board maintains a number of blogging channels (blogs.connect-care.ca) to share information of particular interest to physicians and other prescribers.
Channels
There is a lot to communicate about Connect Care! Most prescribers will benefit from the general-interest blog, Bytes (blogs.connect-care.ca).
Other channels address more focused interests and can be accessed using a toolbar at the top of all blogs:
blogs.connect-care. ca - Bytes contains Connect Care and health informatics news of general interest to prescribers
questions.connect-care.ca - Frequently asked questions (and answers) from prescriber users
tips.connect-care.ca - Tips to help prescribers get the most out of Connect Care
support.connect-care.ca - Information about system issues, challenges, fixes, upgrades and improvements
informatics.connect-care.ca - News and resources for Clinical Informatics Leaders, Medical Informatics Leads, Super Users, SmartUsers and Builders
vlogs.connect-care.ca - Video blogs (1-4 minutes each) providing background of introductory value to prescribers
bridges.connect-care.ca - Connect Care developments of particular interest to physicians who do not use Connect Care as the record of care
csd.connect-care.ca - Information and updates for Clinical System Design stakeholders
Digests of new blog posts across all the Connect Care clinician blog channels are posted most Fridays on the main Bytes channel. The monthly prescriber newsletter, Between the Charts (news.connect-care.ca) also highlights key blog posts from the previous month. Both of these updates can be directly bookmarked via ahs-cis.ca/cmioupdates. In addition, users can subscribe to the RSS feeds of any of the channels.
