Week 7 Assignment

Network Presentation

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to identify an information network in your work setting. This could be within an organizational unit, an entire physical building, or across facilities.

DESCRIPTION

Identify an electronic or computer-based information network in your work setting. This could be within an organizational unit, an entire physical building, or across facilities. Do NOT select EHRs which are software applications. In a 15-to-20 PowerPoint slide presentation, describe the network's purposes, architecture, shape (draw the network, showing how nodes are related), scope (e.g., how much of the unit, building, or organization is connected by the network), users, and any issues related to the network's design and use. Relate the extent to which the network's characteristics fit your findings in the scholarly literature (that is, compare your network to typical networks described in published articles). In the event that you are unable to obtain detailed information about your network provide your recommendations for the ideal network architecture for your setting based upon the literature. Explain two advantages and two disadvantages of the selected network type for communicating information. Speaker notes for each slide should explain, in-depth, the key points shown on the slide.
