Über Oracle Ambulatory EHR
Cerner Ambulatory unterstützt mehr als 55 Fachrichtungen, indem integrierte klinische und finanzielle Lösungen und Dienstleistungen bereitgestellt werden.
I like that PowerChart is easy to navigate and customize depending on the user. The customer support is always a phone call away if you need them.
I find that this software is not oriented towards the physical therapist, and it is very tough to integrate information between departments in the hospital.

Functional Software that plays an important role in the healthcare field
Kommentare: Overall, i have had a pleasant experience with this software, it is definitely user friendly and provides healthcare workers a variety of tools that make charting much easier. Also, it is extremely easy to find information about a specific patient due to the fact that it has different sections with up to date information about the patient and that takes off a lot of times from reading the physician's documentation, at least on my current job position. I highly recommend this software!
Vorteile:
I work in the healthcare industry and use this tool on a daily basis. The software contains a variety of tools that allow healthcare workers to document patient's visits very easily and it is very user friendly. Moreover, it is an extremely well developed software where you are able to navigate through patient's chart, test results, patient's scheduled visits and many other tools that healthcare providers use to get acquaintance with the personal history of the patient. In regards to my position, the Oncology flowchart provides me with information about the cancer staging, treatment name and dates, BMI and lab results. It is a highly functional tool with multi faceted use.
Nachteile:
In order for the software to function correctly, massive amount of updates need to happen monthly from the IT team in my organization. It can be very glitchy sometimes or freeze when there are large amount of information, for example, the MAR section freezes a lot. But other than that, it is highly functional and well developed software.
harder to get used to after using EPIC for EHRs
Kommentare: I learned to use it and I think with more time I will get better as always, but the learning curve was a bit different from EPIC charting which seemed to be more color coded, and easier to navigate, but also full of facility wide things that had to be filled out but didn't apply to the patient, so that was cumbersome.
Vorteile:
It is easy to use once you get to know where things are located, but it has more of a windows software feel than a mac software. It is more utilitarian in that it is not colored and the font is small, which is good for efficiency in documenting once you know where things go and are located. Does not have hangups that EPIC has when company wide documenting is required for certain areas that sometimes do not apply to particular patient such as was the case on a pediatric floor where I was using this system and I appreciated not having EPIC.
Nachteile:
Hard to get used to. I was coming from using EPIC mostly, which seems easier and more intuitive to learn. I found the smaller black boxes and hidden tabs harder to get used to when trying to document daily things. As a nurse the med administration tab wasn't as easy to use as it is in EPIC and wasn't as intuitive and I sometimes messed up at first in documenting med administration especially when trying to add something that wasn't scanning from the pharmacy and I had to do an override.
Extremely poor value for the money
Kommentare: The user experience is completely not user-friendly, often needing ongoing clarification for what are basic searching or to complete basic routine activities. Amazingly poor UX/UI layout, and often confusing. The customer services has been all along a nightmare. For more than two months initially in March 2016 when we wanted to start this system we were forced to keep calling in prescriptions to pharmacies & writing controlled medicines for 5 days because the system wasn't working -and Cerner telling us they didn't know what was the problem. Later on when we were eventually able to e-prescribe non-controlled substances still we were forced to get a NY State waiver for controlled substances because the company couldn't get it resolved in more than a month longer. Worse, they blamed our IT team here when was clear it wasn't the case. This was more frustrating as this was happening while we're busy seen patients. Support was spotty at best, often the IT people been forced to resolve the problems themselves, or improvise, while the agency I'm working was paying Cerner money. Even now (10/18/2016), the e-prescribe system, that claims it has a renewal option for old medications, it doesn't work for controlled substances (some do, some don't) , so many of us have always to re-write as a new prescription all controlled medicines. I'm a psychiatrist but I've also some formal training in UX/UI design, and to write code, so I'm probably better understanding computers than the usual MD, and even for me the system was an impossible crazy task. I also work with other e-prescribe systems in other agencies, and comparing apples to apples, the other systems are much cheaper and much, much better, and very much easier to use. It's amazing how poor service you can get paying big bucks! And here, this is one glaring example. Buyer beware!
Vorteile:
Easier to write progress notes.
Nachteile:
What I wrote about e-prescribe.
Powerchart review
Kommentare: Once you learn Cerner Powerchart, it is a great software, very user friendly, organized, easy to navigate.
Vorteile:
I use this software at work to access patients charts, send messages to other healthcare team members, and to document. Charting is very easy, software flows well. There are lots of shortcuts that make work faster. Pages can be customized to make everyone’s work more efficient and personalized. Search buttons within patients charts are also very useful when learning more about their medical and medication history. This software makes patients’ chart very well organized, easy to find all the necessary information, easy to look up and updated patients’ information such as pharmacy, medications, allergies.
Nachteile:
Frequent software updates are often times less useful and more confusing than previous version, takes some time to learn and get used to it. In some cases support team needs to be contacted to reverse or modify new updates for software to be more user friendly. Occasionally there are problems with the serve, errors when logging in, which are addressed by support team in a timely matter.
Cross functional amazing
Vorteile:
Everyone could use it to serve the patient the best, from in house staff registering and obtain images of id's or insurance information, to providers to document patient's care and keep reports, to billing departments for insurance verification or printing medical reports. It was a 1 stop shop for medical purposes.
Nachteile:
Training was non me, i learned everything on my own. But that could of been a company decision and not a software issue.
Not user friendly for staff
Kommentare: It has been a stressful year implementing this as our all in one solution for EMR, feedback from all staff members has been poor to outright displeasure, with some staff leaving rather than learn the new system
Vorteile:
I would say the only real benefit is that we have all our facilities on the same system and everything is there when we go to different departments
Nachteile:
It is supposed to be easy to use, but it really isn't. As a patient i found my Stress test that was ordered was not ordered. As an IT person not being able to resolve issues myself and relying on a poor tier support system was onerous. 5 days to add a new printer after one failed. WHY?
Cerner Review
Vorteile:
I liked that it was easy to schedule appointments.
Nachteile:
The thing that I liked least is there was no way to look at other parts of the chart without stopping what you was in the middle of and going to another part of the patients chart to get information
Gets the job done!
Kommentare: All in all it's a good product and I am able to get my work done.
Vorteile:
This program, for the most part is easy to navigate. The layout is fairly simple to follow. I am usually able to accomplish what I need in a days work without worrying about the system booting me out or freezing up.
Nachteile:
I don't like that there are several different ways to do one task. This can make training new hires very difficult and easily confused.
Ok EMR
Kommentare: Cerner allows my organization to chart for patients securely.
Vorteile:
Cerner has uses for every teams dicipline and it certainly does it's job for patients electronic medical chart.
Nachteile:
Cerner's interface is clunky and things seem to be scattered about everywhere. Getting use to utilizing Cerner takes a while, and finding where information is put can take some time.
My cerner
Vorteile:
Secured , easy to use and retrieve for future reference
Nachteile:
None, everything was covered by the software
Efficient EMR program; User friendly!
Kommentare: My specific department is a centralized scheduling group that oversees all surgery scheduling for the organization. In one day we typically talk with/schedule over 300 patients. This means that we have to be able to quickly access and review a patients chart prior to scheduling their procedure. This used to include many clicks and time - We are now able to do this very quickly and efficiently. (Hence why our group is able to handle all surgery scheduling for the organization)
Vorteile:
Implementing Cerner has been nothing but a positive experience and we have continued to find ways to improve our program to benefit each department within our clinic. Patients have also experienced the increased efficiency since implementing Cerner - This has been our biggest win!
Nachteile:
Currently our program does not interface with all pharmacy scripting programs and Dragon dictation software that many providers like to utilize. We are working with other programs & have workaround workflows in place to address this but will be working more closely with representatives from Cerner to ensure this is not an issue with necessary interfaces going forward.
Rich function, poor user friendly interface
Kommentare: We could deal with physicians' need of a comprehensive computer system to support patient care. Usability issues still remain but it's quite common in modern EHR systems.
Vorteile:
Cerner Ambulatory EHR is one the well known and popularly used EHR systems in the US. It has most of the functions that are needed for outpatient care, computerized order entry system, and data data entry for meaningful use. The consultants from Cerner are hard-working, knowledgable, and deal with issues in a prompt manner.
Nachteile:
Although it is a production system, it used to be so slow and physicians complain about ordering time takes up to 10 seconds. Citrix based desktop is slow. User interface and layout of components in Physician workflow is not intuitive and hard to learn. Overall it results in longer data entry time and takes physicians' time to talk to patients.
Overpriced but necessary
Vorteile:
I’m a believer of you get what you pay for. However in a world of limited options this could be better for the cost
Nachteile:
Very clunky and hard to use. Not many other options for EMR vendors. We are moving to Meditech next year
Easy of use
Kommentare: Cerner millennium is easy to use again and faster as well.
Vorteile:
I can save multiple precompleted templates and diagnosis, making it so is to use and it really save time. However this possibility is not available on all Cerner products. Cerner millennium is the best so far. Cerner medconnect allows to tag and paste from previous note
Nachteile:
Cerner Medconnect is the worst product, not user friendly at all! One can not save a pre completed template! There is a possibility of entering smart text, however this is time consuming. “Tag” functioned can take a couple of minutes! It’s really a waste of time
Excellent for patient tracking!
Vorteile:
The best software I've used for tracking patient's history and orders. It helps me accurately organize and make sure all radiology orders performed for selected patients are attached to their specific radiologist reading tests.
Nachteile:
The only difficulty that I came across with at the beginning was finding reports and documents for patients when they were requested. With some training this task becomes pretty easy making this software absolutely useful!
Worst EMR out there with horrible support
Kommentare: Cerner EMR was ok before recent upgrade. Now it is horrible and it's a nightmare to use. Stuck with this system. DO NOT consider this system if you are shopping around and save your self time by not even looking at Cerner. Horrible customer support. No one takes responsibility and you feel like talking to some one who has no clue.
Vorteile:
Was ok before upgrade.
Nachteile:
Horrible to navigate and time consuming. Too many bugs need to be fixed. Terrible customer support. No one knows what' s happening. No one takes any responsibility.
Cerner can be very detailed but there are too many clicks
Vorteile:
Cerner Cerner can be very detailed and specific
Nachteile:
There are too many different ways to complete a task. And there are too many buttons to complete one task
EHR for Hospital
Kommentare: I have been happy with utilizing the system overall. It is the system our local hospital uses, so we login to assist in retrieval of records for upcoming appointments.
Vorteile:
I like that I can easily find the information I am looking for in the system.
Nachteile:
I do not care for the several different logins to get into the system. Unless you are at the facility, you have to go through a 3-4 step login process.
There's a learning curve
Kommentare: I used this charting system for over a year in the hospital setting. I grew used to it's features, but never got over how long it took to chart.
Vorteile:
I appreciate the hearts helping guide me to chart certain tasks at a designated frequency. I can read my orders and labs easily, which is very important!
Nachteile:
It takes longer than it feasibly should to chart my assessments. Time is of the utmost importance in the world of nursing, and the time I spend charting is time I can't do other important patient care tasks.
Powerchart is valuable to have because many different healthcare entities use this software.
Vorteile:
It is easy to access and locate lab results. I like that you can see the results of certain diagnostic tests, as well as other tests even if they were not ordered by your physician.
Nachteile:
It is easy to choose the incorrect encounter for a patient to make it hard to locate results. The software is not self-explanatory.
Cerner is by far the easiest, most user friendly EMR available.
Vorteile:
The maintenance on the software is minimal. It's stable and Cerner helps maintain a lot of it. We use all of the applications available and have been so pleased.
Nachteile:
It's a whole system, so downtime includes taking everything down. You can't do it piece by piece. This causes downtime for the entire organization.
Functional
Vorteile:
I was happy with the training we received as users. The Cerner educators were very friendly and knowledgeable about the products.
Nachteile:
The thing I most disliked was the seemingly ever updating changes that we endured. It seemed as if the program was always being updated, requiring more training.
Not as user-friendly as EPIC
Kommentare: I prefer EPIC over Cerner.
Vorteile:
Cerner is a good EMR program with the basic features of patient appointments, documentation, outside records, lab results, etc.
Nachteile:
Cerner is not as user-friendly as EPIC's EMR. It takes about a month of daily use to get the hang of where different files and information are located in the patient chart. I wish its search feature could search more in-depth within the patient chart like EPIC does.
Worked with this software daily for over 7 years.
Vorteile:
I liked how user friendly this software was. At the time i worked with people who ranged from all ages and everyone seemed to be able to work this fairly easy.
Nachteile:
At times it could be pretty glitchy. And the updates drove us kind of crazy in the pharmacy. But that comes with the territory.
Cerner or not to Cerner
Vorteile:
Ease of learning Relatively intuitive Integration with voice dictation Straightforward
Nachteile:
Power notes can be convoluted Preferences could be better organized. Occasional hiccup with dictation needing a restart/logout No compatibility easily with other EHR
