Human-Technology System Interaction and Integration With the Broader Healthcare Enterprise

Description

This course does not offer CE Credits. The same course is available for purchase and offers 1 CE hour for behavioral health clinicians.  See "related products" below.

In order to optimize the telemedicine experience, we need to consider the technology and the human part of the human-technology interface equation. When designing a facility for telemedicine, there are several things to consider from a human factors point of view. This goes far beyond simple user satisfaction. This course explores some aspects of how to optimize the telehealth environment and how to assess the quality of the encounter by focusing on the human-technology system interaction and integration within the broader healthcare enterprise.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain the impact of the role of human factors in the design of a telemedicine room, explore where to go for resources about human factors in telehealth.
• Investigate how simple variables such as eye contact require attention during a telemedicine encounter.
• Set up and configure lighting for telehealth visits, examine basic approaches to ergonomic assessments.
