概要:The use of information technology to improve outcomes for patients and efficiencies for health professionals is increasing at a rapid rate. The availability of trained health informatics specialists to support this new way of working has not kept pace with strong demand and there is a massive worldwide shortage. Healthcare systems internationally are under pressure from demographic, social and technological change, and innovations in information and communications technologies are helping to create responses. Health care services around the world are investing heavily in technology to develop integrated systems that benefit patients and health practitioners. Australia has committed to make the largest investment in health information systems to date, including the goal to establish a single national electronic health record system. The treatment provider and the person needing treatment are not always in the same location and so telemedicine is increasingly being used to address this issue. In addition, the Internet has enabled people to go online to research health issues. Health informatics professionals support these innovations and work across a range of sectors, from hospitals and community health centres, to government agencies and ICT companies. The health informatics profession attracts people from a variety of backgrounds. Some have an ICT, science or engineering background but want to work in a more people-focused area. Alternatively, some come from a health practitioner background but want to move away from direct health practice and use their knowledge to help implement information systems to improve health outcomes. Our program is designed for people wanting to pursue a career as health informatics specialists, as well as for health professionals aiming to improve their knowledge and skills in this developing field of expertise.
