Practical Reference for Healthcare Professionals Practicing in 2007,
This review is from: Medical Informatics: Practical Guide for the Healthcare Professional 2007 (Paperback)
Most healthcare professionals are using technology in healthcare without any formal training on how to best incorporate it into their practice, clinics, hospitals and training programs so the learning curve is often steep and slow. This book is used as a textbook for the University of West Florida online course "Introduction to Medical Informatics" which is one of four courses needed for its Certificate in Medical Informatics.
If you want to have an easy to read practical reference in your office on online patient and medical resources, clinical practice guidelines, medical programs for PDA's, patient safety to name a few...this is the book to buy!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Medical Informatics: Practical Guide for the Healthcare Professional 2007 (Paperback)
The content breadth and commentary are the best I've seen.
The authors point out that only an E-Book and constant updates can be most effective for the subject churn pace, and indeed, at www.uwf.edu/sahls/medicalinformatics a 2008 "second" edition is available at less cost.

Handy Guide to Medical Informatics,
This review is from: Medical Informatics: Practical Guide for the Healthcare Professional 2007 (Paperback)
Information technology is an integral part of healthcare today but most physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals don't have the time or interest to learn more than absolutely necessary to maximize the benefits or minimize the headaches.
Definitely a handy guide to medical informatics that's easy to understand and full of useful resources and references. You will agree if you search inside this book.
