I will like you do grammar check, and rewrite it in another form. This is to avoid plagirsm. Thank you.

The purpose of this research is to explain some advantages and disadvantages of the implementation of the electronic medical record in a general hospital and specific units such as Neonatal intensive care unit. Also, it will emphasize different challenges that physician face when using the eMR as well as some solutions they offered in order to help them to overcome the challenge of typing. Most importantly, it will focus on the beneficial use of the eMR such as reduced time when charting specially in nursing as they spend a lot of time when documenting, it will reduce the time in half when using electronic medical record. Also, the research will review how the electronic medical record can enhance the quality of care to the patient. The electronic medical record will provide all the information needed by the physicians or any health care provider when giving care especially the critical patient who needs a quick intervention. This reseach will provide some information on how the eMR can improve quality of care. On the other hand, it will be discussed how the use of eMR can affect the relationship between a health care provider and the patient. As we know, health care providers have to keep a professional but close relationship with their patients in order to provide care and give the best intervention. However, when a health care provider uses electronic medical record some information might be lost when typing from a paper-based system into the eMR. The journals discuss multiple solutions to overcome and to reduce the risk of losing important information of our patient when typing or scanning the information into the eMR. Ventura, M.L., Battan, A.M., Zorloni, C., Abbiati, L., Colombo, M. Farina, S., & Tagliabue, P. (2011). The electronic medical record: pros and cons. The journal of maternal- fetal and neonatal medicine, 24(1), 163-166. doi: 10.3109/14767058.2011.607582 In this journal, researchers want to implement an electronic medical record in a neonatal intensive care unit. This system will enhance critical patientâs treatment because it will implement bedside clinical observation with machine monitoring data, and results from the laboratory. The time of charting for nurses was reduced but medical staff complained about the lack of automation in the reports. Through this journal researchers demonstrate that even though electronic medical record is beneficial because it reduces the charting time, it also can increase the risk for system error which can be fatal for the patients. In conclusion, electronic medical record should be reviewed for any complication that can influence patientâs life. Fox, G. S. (2014). The people versus the electronic medical record, last Thursday. Acad Pshychiatry, 38, 368-372. doi: 10.1007/s40596-014-0042-x In this journal, physicians express their concern about the use of electronic medical record. Physicians believe that the use of technology interferes with the face to face discussion between patients and doctors. Physician stated that the essential and precious communication has been diminished for both care givers and patients. Indeed, I believe with the use of electronic medical record, the lack of interaction and eye contact between the care giver and patient is increasing. This journal is really relevant within the nursing profession because it raises awareness of how important it is to keep the essential of communication between patients and health care providers. In brief, health care providers should find other way to obtain and record patient information to support the doctors and patient relationship. Ossoff, R. H., Thomason, C. D., & Appleton, J. (2010). Challenges with the electronic medical record. Journal of Health Care Compliance, 12(6), 51-54. Retrieved from http://search.proquest.com/docview/822639350?accountid=3455 The authors in this article examine the different challenges that doctors are facing with the use of electronic medical record. Firstly, physicians have to take training to learn how to use the system. However, to overcome the challenge of typing, physicians proposed an idea of creating well detailed templates that list all organs systems. Indeed, templates should be used just as a baseline of information, to help the users to remember the key elements while adding the patientâs information. This is a good point in documentation because even though templates are easier to fill out, medical staff should keep in mind that documentation should be well detailed. Although the templates might be well detailed, it is better to write your own finding when assessing a client. As the authors mention, templates should be used only as a baseline information. The population of interest regarding this journal will be health care providers and people that might want to go into the health care profession. Perez, S., & Keijzers, G. (2012). Missing data in the electronic medical record. Emergency medicine Australasia, 24 (4), 465. doi: 10.1111/j.1742-6723.2012.01564.x The authors of this research explain the problems that caused the transition from paper-based system to electronic medical record. With the implementation of the eMR all paper-based data are scanned into the eMR using pdf files and then destroyed. This caused many missing information in the eMR because they were destroyed before being verified in the eMR. Some solutions were addressed in this journal including; depositing the data collection sheets and separating them from the medical charts and placing them in the data collection boxes. This might decrease the loss of a patientâs important information. In brief, this journal addresses a very important topic about the importance of completely transferring the patientâs information into the eMR. Also, it creates an awareness to keep paper documentation even though the eMR is present. Hoffman, M.A., & Williams, M.S. (2011). Electronic medical records and personalized medicine. Hum genet, 130, 33-39. doi: 10.1007/s00439-011-0992-y The authors emphasize two important aspects of a fully functional electronic medical record. Firstly, it is necessary to present patients or clinicians with a high quality context detailed information when providing care. Secondly, the users must combine clinical information from different sources in order to guide the clinician to improve intervention for a given patient. According to this journal, the use of electronic medical record can increase quality of providing care. As health care professionals our main goal is to provide the best intervention to our patient and this journal proved that the use of eMR can improve the intervention given to the patient. This is because it can give doctors a quick access to patientâs information in a critical scenario or even when just proving care.

phc-112 health education and promotion / please i need the answer very quickl

Introduction

The focus this week is the role of research in health promotion. We will consider the four phases of research in the design of health promotions programs. These are: preliminary research, program development research, monitoring, and evaluation. Preliminary research focuses on diagnosis of the existing situation, the environmental and behavioral causes of health problems and the determinants of these causes. Program development research facilitates the development of programs and action plans. Monitoring aims to examine the ways in which programs are implemented, including the processes of participation and collaboration, in order to keep track of and/or improve the program. Evaluation involves a review of the results achieved in the program in terms of its effectiveness, efficiency and validity.

We will also consider the types and styles of research. Types of research include qualitative and quantitative. Some common research styles discussed in your textbook include experimental, survey, documentary-historical, and field study. During a group project this week, you will have an opportunity to conduct preliminary research to identify behavioral and environmental factors contributing to a health problem.
