Week 1
It feels very enlightening when the very first lecture of the subject discuss about the complexities of the mechanisms. Every sector is developed on the base of the complex system interaction. Healthcare sector is a system, which work successfully which interaction of many departments such as policy makers, teachers, researchers, policy makers, government, safety regulation agencies, regulators, and boards of directors. I had sound idea that many people contributed in providing the high-quality care to the patient, but this week I had come across the dependency of these department and complex interaction between them. There are some peculiar features of the complexity of healthcare, these features include population of agents, interacting, dynamic, and emergent rules and governance. The healthcare network is a webbed structure instead of linear one.

Resilience is a necessity to handle the crisis. This week I had come across healthcare system resilience and the way healthcare system deals with the crisis. Healthcare system resilience includes the capacity of the involved personals such as health actors, population, and institution to prepare themselves for the crisis and effectively respond to it. I had learnt about the method adopted in the healthcare system to handle the crisis. Occurrence of crisis in healthcare is not a new thing but important is use of past knowledge to handle the future crisis. I had learnt about 7 principles of resilience include diversity and redundancy, managing connectivity, polycentric governance, participation of stakeholders, encouraging learning, slow variables and feedback and complex adaptive system thinking. Adopting of these principles can be helpful in handling any crisis.

Technology has become part of all the organizations, healthcare organization is not an exception. There are various technologies available and widely used to make the healthcare organization effective such as electronic medical record and computerized provider order entry. There have been many other technologies, which are implemented in the healthcare settings depending upon the needs. These tools improve the clinical quality outcomes. Generally, we thought that implementation of technology in a setting can solve all the issues. It is a biggest myth as failure to understand whom, why and under what conditions technological interventions implemented; the desired outcome is not achieved. I had learnt that relying completely on technology could not be solution as lot of work need to be done for the proper implementation of the technology.
Week 4
This week, I had learnt about electronic health record. It is a device, which replaces paper work and brings the digitalization in the healthcare. Electronic health record is...
