Healthcare & Technology: Innovation at the Intersection |
| Website |
http://www.myhealthtechblog.com |
| Blog post authors |
Deborah Leyva |
| Description of Website |
After 17 years in technology, including various leadership roles, and now as a Registered Nurse, I turn my attention to the use of technology within the healthcare industry. This blog contains my thoughts, experiences and opinions about the value of technology for improving healthcare.
Healthcare is, and remains, one of the most pressing challenges facing our nation (and the world) in the 21st century. Almost any discussion related to improving healthcare, whether it implicates reducing costs or improving patient safety and satisfaction, usually has technology as a core component. Technology, in and of itself, will not solve the problem, but used appropriately will contribute to the transformation of healthcare, as it has in many other industries. However, in healthcare, the technology options appear even more complex and the number of vendors daunting. These are the critical challenges that confront us. |

I have a feature for teaching medical terminology in my posts, and also this is a very unusual view as I am both a Nurse AND a Patient!! I am here to support my readers. If I can reach just that ONE person feeling alone in their pain, or someone who just got a DX for a lifetime of pain management when all else has failed, I hope my site can be of some comfort to these people. I will never stop being a Nurse, I’m just not able to be on the floor anymore. Empathy and learning can both be found on my site. |

| Description of Website |
Living with Multiple Sclerosis is a daily battle. MS is the invisible disease or at least for most people. We fight many emotional and physical symptoms all the time. We need as much support as we can get. However due to the invisible symptoms we tend to not get a lot of support and that brings on more emotional stress which in return brings on more MS symptoms. A Vicious cycle. In talk about what is like living with MS each day but also I have and give a lot of information and I do surveys and polls to help show what we all deal with daily. It is an open blog for fellow MS’ers as well as caregivers and loved ones of MS. |

I am 30 years old, and I have had Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS) — also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) — for my entire adult life. I currently work full-time at a great job and appear young and healthy. What many don’t know, however, is that I am someone who suffers from chronic illness, has trouble walking up a flight of stairs, and is usually too tired to do anything other than watch TV and go to bed. I know I am one of the “lucky” ones with CFIDS because I am able to work… though I can’t do much else. I hope that sharing my thoughts and experiences will help others better understand the disease. |
