Computer-based training provides a cost-effective method for hospital information system (HIS) orientation. This self-paced tutorial allows staff flexible access to essential system training, improving user competency.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Education Technology

Background:

  • Hospital information systems (HIS) require extensive staff training.
  • Many healthcare personnel lack prior computer or specific system experience.
  • Effective training is crucial for successful HIS implementation and user adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate a computer-based training (CBT) tutorial for a Patient Care Information System (PCIS).
  • To evaluate the efficiency and accessibility of CBT for large-scale staff orientation.
  • To address the challenge of training personnel with limited computer literacy.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a decentralized, self-paced CBT tutorial using high-level software.
  • Deployment of the tutorial to train 2500 clinical and unit support personnel on the PCIS.

  • Offering optional mentored group classes with a "superuser" for additional support.

    • Main Results:

    • The CBT tutorial successfully trained a large cohort of healthcare personnel.
    • Self-paced learning accommodated varying user needs and schedules.
    • Mentored sessions provided supplementary support for approximately 12% of users.

    Conclusions:

    • Computer-based training is a cost-efficient and flexible solution for HIS orientation.
    • Decentralized, self-paced tutorials enhance accessibility and user control over learning.
    • Blended learning approaches, combining CBT with optional mentored support, can cater to diverse user needs.
