Hospital information system

Author: Jaroslav Majerník

annotation image

Hospital information systems are designed with the aim to manage various clinical and patient health care related activities in more efficient way. In contrast to the paper based forms the administration tasks are realized in fully electronic way. This provides easy and fast access to the patient data, patient’s history of illness and treatment, allows monitoring of drug distribution, improves communication between physicians, reduces duplication of information entries, better financial management etc. Hospital Information systems also help in decision making procedures oriented on selection of proper treatment as well as on creation of health care policy.

Symposium on New Era in Medical Education

Author: Jaroslav Majerník

annotation image

During the spring of 2020, due to the advancing pandemic of COVID-19, there was a need to move teaching to the online environment in a short time. This need has affected all universities, including medical ones, where a large part of teaching takes place in the form of practical exercises and clinical practice. Here, the NEWMED team analysed the transition to online teaching at the participating institutions and produced a methodological manual for academics that provides information on appropriate teaching methods and tools. Join our multiplier event on 1 December 2022 in Kosice and hear, share and discuss topics that are changing the approach to education in medicine during and after the pandemic.
