General Information

Overview

Digital health is being used in hospitals and private health care providers in the community. Using electronic systems to communicate and store personal health care data is fast becoming the norm and is yet another expectation of contemporary health care. Hospital digital health systems require health care professionals to enter patient information, while the Australia wide My Health Record ensures all health care professionals have access to individual health records. This unit examines the different types of telecommunication and virtual technologies available in health care that promote individualised and person-centred care. You will explore the history of digital health care systems as well as analyse contemporary issues and concerns including cybersecurity, privacy, consent and electronic exchange of information.

Task Description

Learning Outcomes Assessed

1. Discuss considerations related to cybersecurity, privacy, consent, and electronic exchange of information when using digital health technology.

2. Explore how digital health technology can support person-centred care.

3. Evaluate the use of electronic health records when working in the community.

Aim

The aim of this assessment is to provide you with an opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the Moodle content within the course thus far. This assessment also provides you with the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to apply this theoretical knowledge to the community setting.

Note: To achieve a passing grade for this unit you are required to pass this assessment item. If you do not pass this assessment item, you may have an opportunity to reattempt. If you are required to reattempt you can only achieve a maximum of 50% of the available marks for this assessment.

Instructions

This assessment offers you an opportunity to engage in an informal and real-world process (blogging) that may assist you in your transition from student to professional RN. Blogging is a form of reflective journaling and has been shown to promote clinical reasoning, and self-reflective practice, deepen individual understanding of strengths and weaknesses, develop conflict resolution skills, reinforce new learning, and enhance communication skills. These are all skills you have been developing throughout your studies.

NB: In keeping with the informal presentation style of blogging this introduction is not referenced, however, the information can be validated in the literature and is not the result of the author’s personal opinions.

Please follow the steps below to complete your assessment task:

The assessment consists of three short discussions written in the style of blogs.

Blog 1: Write a blog outlining your experiences with digital technologies either from working with them on any clinical placement OR from personal experience with the health system. Examples you could use include but are not limited to IeMR, digital medication systems, electronic discharge systems, telehealth, online appointment booking systems, and programs to view blood or imaging result reporting systems (other topics can be submitted to the Unit Coordinator for consideration). In this section, you will explain your chosen digital technology including what it is and how it is used. Consider the concepts of cybersecurity, privacy, and consent in relation to your chosen digital technology. (500 words +/- 10%)

Blog 2: Consider what you have learned from your experiences engaging with digital health technology and from the content you have studied so far. In this blog write about how you will incorporate digital health technology into your future nursing practice in such a way as to support and enhance person-centred care. (500 words +/- 10%)

Blog 3: Discuss the use of electronic health records (such as IeMR or My Health Record) in community care settings.

In your discussion include the benefits and limitations of electronic health records in the community. Propose strategies to minimise the impact of these limitations on people accessing community health care. (500 words +/-10%)

· Blogs can be written in the first or second person (I, we, you).

· Academic writing standards apply; correct spelling and grammar are essential however references and citations are not.

· Expected word count 500 words +/- 10% per blog. (Total word count = 1500 words +/- 10%)

Task Description

Learning Outcomes Assessed

1. Discuss considerations related to cybersecurity, privacy, consent, and electronic exchange of information when using digital health technology.

2. Explore how digital health technology can support person-centred care.

4. Analyse the role of telehealth in assisting people from regional and remote areas to access appropriate health care.

Aim

This assessment is related to the rights of all individuals to access adequate health care using telehealth models of care. Lower availability of services is a recognised health risk factor and a determinant of poorer health. Affordable and timely access to health services can prevent illness and can cure, stop, slow the development of, or make bearable, illnesses or chronic conditions.

Telehealth models of care lower the burden of travel and access to health services for many people.

It is important to be familiar with telehealth models as a care model that is available to healthcare providers and consumers. In this assessment, you are to explore the benefits and challenges of telehealth by completing a short answer written assessment.

Note: To achieve a passing grade for this unit you are required to pass this assessment item. If you do not pass this assessment item, you may have an opportunity to reattempt. If you are required to reattempt you can only achieve a maximum of 50% of the available marks for this assessment.

Instructions

The assessment relates to the video “Telehealth Case Study 2: Mental Health in the Bush.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ceg1ddKFO68

This video provides a positive account of the use of telehealth, while also referring to some of the challenges that healthcare professionals need to overcome to use such technology. The care study is specifically related to telehealth for rural/remote locations.

The assessment consists of three sections, which you will explore and discuss.

Section One: Choose three benefits or advantages of telehealth that were discussed in the video. These should specifically relate to people living in rural and remote areas. Discuss these using relevant current literature to support your argument (500 words).

Section Two: Discuss three challenges or barriers to telehealth in a small rural or remote community; one of these points must be around cybersecurity, privacy and/or electronic exchange of information. Use relevant current literature to support your argument (500 words).

Section Three: Discuss how telehealth technology supports person-centred care. Consider implications for delivering person-centred care in small rural and remote locations/towns (500 words).

Literature and References

In this assessment use at least 10 contemporary references (<5 years) to support your discussion. You may also use seminal scholarly literature where relevant. Suitable references include peer-reviewed journal articles as well as textbooks and credible websites. When sourcing information, consider the 5 elements of a quality reference: currency, authority, relevance, objectivity, and coverage. Grey literature sourced from the internet must be from reputable websites such as from government, university, or peak national bodies: for example, the Australian College of Nursing or the Australian Association of Social Workers.

Academic Integrity Statement

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.

Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.

When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.

Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.

As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.

What is a breach of academic integrity?

A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.

Why is academic integrity important?
