Healthcare Information Technology Trends
Healthcare Information Technology Trends
Throughout history, technological advancements have appeared for one purpose before finding applications
elsewhere that lead to spikes in its usage and development. The internet, for example, was originally developed
to share research before becoming a staple of work and entertainment. But technology—new and repurposed—
will undoubtedly continue to be a driver of healthcare information. Informaticists often stay tuned to trends to
monitor what the next new technology will be or how the next new idea for applying existing technology can
benefit outcomes.
In this Assignment help – Discussion, you will reflect on your healthcare organization’s use of technology and offer a technology
trend you observe in your environment.

Post a brief description of general healthcare technology trends, particularly related to data/information you
have observed in use in your healthcare organization or nursing practice. Describe any potential challenges or
risks that may be inherent in the technologies associated with these trends you described. Then, describe at least
one potential benefit and one potential risk associated with data safety, legislation, and patient care for the
technologies you described. Next, explain which healthcare technology trends you believe are most promising
for impacting healthcare technology in nursing practice and explain why. Describe whether this promise will
contribute to improvements in patient care outcomes, efficiencies, or data management. Be specific and provide
