We'll be hosting an exhibitor booth at OADN's 2015 conference in Jacksonville, FL this weekend from Nov. 13th-15th. Make sure to stop by to enter our drawing for a free year and learn more about our product.

Along with some of our past posts including infographics on different diseases, we found this great image from University of Florida.

Here's another post in our series of infographics that gives the rundown on a nasty disease: Tuberculosis. This particular visual aid gives some basic information on the transmission and symptoms of the disease. This is great for anyone learning about different diseases or parents looking for more information before a TB shot.

We'll be hosting a booth at the AACN Fall Semi-annual conference this Sunday, Oct. 25th in Washington DC. During the conference, we'll have barcode scanners available at our booth to test out our barcode scanning functionality and will be giving away a free year of EHR Tutor to one winner after the show. Make sure to stop by and meet our representatives!

We've been stumbling across quite a few useful infographics lately, so we thought we'd keep up the trend. After finding some images related to specific diseases, we realized these might be useful for those of you who are visual learners. While you may have already listened to a lecture on these diseases, we thought this series of infographics might help solidify the information. These are also great for instructors who would like to provide more resources for students who need visual instruction.

Now that we have our Provider module for Advanced Practice and Physician's Assistant students, we'd love to get the gears moving when it comes to teaching ideas. If your school has either one of these programs, email us to set up a demo and explore how our product could work for your school.

We found this fascinating infographic from University of Florida outlining the demographics of different diseases in the US. Examining this from a Nurse Education standpoint, we think it's fascinating how different regions may provide extremely different clinical experiences for students. For example, students in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia will probably work with more Heart Disease and Stroke patients than their northern counterparts. On the other hand, a student working in California facilities is more likely to encounter HIV/AIDS patients.

University of Florida came up with this great infographic to help patients learn more about the medications they may be prescribed. However, I thought this was a great resource for Nursing students learning about various drugs. It isn't very comprehensive, but it does give you a look at some of the basic meds, their doses and the process manufacturer's go through to get approval for new medications.
