Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology (HIT)
Health Information Technology, commonly called HIT, integrates advanced information systems and technology in healthcare settings. Its primary functions include:

Integrated Healthcare System

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Guidelines and Strategies for Safe Computer Charting

Guidelines and Strategies for Safe Computer Charting

The guidelines and strategies provided by the American Nurses Association (ANA) and the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) offer essential principles for ensuring safe and secure computer charting systems in healthcare settings. Let's break down each recommendation:
Maintain Confidentiality and Security:

International Nursing Organizations I

International Nursing Organizations I

International Nursing Organization (ICN) is a global union of national nurses' organizations. Individual nurses can be a part of ICN through member organizations. Each member organization strives to ensure quality nursing care, sound health policies, the advancement of nursing knowledge, respect for the profession, and a satisfied and competent nursing workforce.
ICN member organizations work to advance the field of nursing and healthcare via policies, partnerships, lobbying, professional...

Healthcare Agencies II

Healthcare Agencies II

There are various healthcare agencies in the United States—some of which are managed by religious institutions and others by different government branches.
Parish nursing is a growing specialty nursing profession that focuses on holistic healthcare, health promotion, and illness prevention. It blends professional nursing practice with a health ministry, focusing on health and healing within the context of a Christian community. Parish nurses serve as health educators, referral sources, and lay...

Area of Science:

Computer Science
Network Engineering
Information Technology

Context:

The National Institute of Health Sciences (NIHS) required an updated computer network system to address escalating energy consumption.
Previous network infrastructure faced challenges in maintaining service levels while optimizing resource utilization.

Purpose:

To redesign the NIHS Computer Network System (NIHS-NET) for reduced electric power consumption.
To implement virtual machine technology for server consolidation while preserving existing service functionalities.
To enhance overall network security and operational efficiency.

Summary:

The NIHS-NET was updated by migrating the main server system to virtual machine technology.
Individual virtual servers were deployed for each service to mitigate potential performance degradation compared to physical servers.
Despite increased virtual server count and network complexity, conventional services were maintained, and security was improved.

Impact:

Significant reduction in electrical power consumption for the NIHS network infrastructure.
Enhanced network security through the implementation of multiple countermeasures.
Sustained or improved service availability and performance for NIHS users.
Demonstrated feasibility of virtual machine technology for critical network systems in research institutions.
