Web-Based Training for Enhanced View

Since I last posted, a host of new training materials have been launched and should be available to you whether at work or home. The latest includes the beginnings of a compendium of WBTs, or web-based training modules, similar to what was used when we first went live with CIS a few years back. If you remember, these are texted instructions (no voiceover) and so, technically speaking, should be straightforward to access when logging in from home. They consist of click-through screens with some "try on your own" areas within each module. Here is the link to the so-called Master List. Keep in mind that you will need to login to the Baystate site and navigate to the CIS Enhanced View Information site if you want to access these remotely (the link below won't work).

Web-Based Training Modules - The Master List

In addition, many of you have accessed the newly posted webinars. These are pre-recorded instructional sessions done over the past couple of weeks. While we've had some technical difficulties related to the Baystate firewall, I think we've got the problem figured out and list all the links here today.

(An enormous thanks go to the CIS training team led by the formidable Dave Lapierre!)

Webinars:

1. General Overview
   
2. Documentation
3. Prescribing
4. Documenting Medication Compliance
5. Medication Reconciliation for Providers
6. Message Center
7. Histories
8. Patient Instructions for Discharge

All of the above are relevant to physician/provider users of CIS except for Documenting Medication Compliance (inpt and ambulatory RNs and MAs) and Patient Instructions for Discharge (inpt RNs).

NOTE: as of 5:30PM today, I am not yet able to access these webinar links outside of the firewall. I can assure you that this will be figured out sooner rather than later.

UPDATE: I'm on my iMac at this very moment and, after downloading the GP4 program, I am able to seamlessly listen to the pre-recorded webinars. No need to enter an access code; just cancel out of that mini-screen. You might then see another dialogue box or two-just ignore them. So for all you mac users, it's a simple download and then click to use the GP4, not the Java.

UPDATE AGAIN: The first Webinar, General Overview, takes about 30 seconds for the audio portion to begin. I thought this was a problem with the software; it was only my lack of patience that was problematic!
