Do they expect you to wipe it down from room to room? Does BIDMC ID department have a policy on this??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4384692836709903146.post-52767642601717850982010-07-28T16:58:45.248-07:002010-07-28T16:58:45.248-07:00Great post, I keep referring to it when I want to ...Great post, I keep referring to it when I want to point out that not all hospital IT departments are afraid to allow iPads. Unfortunately many still do not allow them or iPhones to be institutional devices.The Krafty Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324848811190322716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4384692836709903146.post-50719299892585060162010-06-22T04:53:58.323-07:002010-06-22T04:53:58.323-07:00rdjfraser, my comment on printing, was specificall...rdjfraser, my comment on printing, was specifically related to our EHR and how it prints. We do server based printing from within the application (when I sign a discharge prescription it goes to the ward's secure prescription paper printer where I am sitting, not the location of the patient, and same for many other things). <br /><br />You could certainly redesign the printing architecture to support awareness of where this workstation is via WAP location, but that's not how the system today works.Henryhbkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15871551378027736107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4384692836709903146.post-65358715513363431502010-06-17T08:41:25.136-07:002010-06-17T08:41:25.136-07:00Very informative post.

Our medical library just got some of these for clinical librarians to use when rounding and they sent out the link to your blog for us to read.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4384692836709903146.post-36817157548903600682010-06-16T22:29:44.500-07:002010-06-16T22:29:44.500-07:00Awesome post!

Many people will say it is the same as a new exercise bike, 'works great for the first week or month, but eventually it will just colllect dust'. I'm hoping it will be much longer though, I really do love it. Also the real reason I wanted to comment is I believe you can remotely print remotely. I do that with my laptop and I've see epps that can too. <br /><br />I definitely think the iPad is a game changer. I love it and plan on posting a lot about how nurses might be able to use it. <br /><br />Thanks for the post, great read. <br />Rob@rdjfraserHttp://nursingideas.canoreply@blogger.com
