Abstract:
Western State Hospital, a state-administered 1,200-bed mental health institution near Tacoma, Wash., confronted the challenge of automating its large campus through the application of the Healthcare Integrated Information System (HIIS). It is the first adaptation of the Veterans Administration's Decentralized Hospital Computer Program software in a mental health institution of this size, and the first DHCP application to be installed on a PC client/server network in a large U.S. hospital.
