We went live last week. It was nonstop all night. It is getting better. No doubt it takes more time. We are in the PTs room less. More and more work for the same pay. Oh for the day of the teamsters. I think that I will like some things about it. Our own bosses will not allow us to copy forward, which peeves the heck right out of me.
Thank you all so mush for the input. I wanted to talk with nurses who have used this program, not salesmen of the product. This information will help qualm the fears of some.
That is very interesting. We use SCM for meds and orders "EMAR" . We will be logging on there to get to Eclipsys. There is allot of angst right now with the length of time to admit someone.
We are " Going Live " this May with Eclipsys. I will be helping my fellow nurses with the roll out. I asked the team if they had talked with any nurses from other hospitals who had used this system. Much to my shock our hospital spent millions on the word of the vendor. Does anyone have input concerning this computer documentation?
