As a trainer of Dragon Medical Practice Edition software, I observe the frustration of providers
trying desperately to learn a new EMR, while at the same time, trying to keep up with seeing the same number of patients in their day. It’s not that management intends to create a less than desirable atmosphere in the workplace. After all, they had every intention of making the working environment better for the employee, the patient, and the business by introducing a state-of-the-art system. Unfortunately, you know what they say about the road paved with good intentions! Sometimes good intentions fall short and we need to re-evaluate the needs of the people these decisions affect.

Troubles With EMR Implementation?
Posted by Julie - on Tue, Mar 05, 2013
In my experience as a Dragon Software trainer, I saw firsthand the results of EMR implementations. Sometimes it was done well, all too often it lacked several key components: Communication, Explanation of Expectations, Appropriate Tools, not to mention Effective Training. Overall, the underlying element I almost consistently observed was minimal or no Change Management!!
