Evaluation of virtual training delivery for health information systems implementation in Canada: A qualitative study.

Introduction: As health information systems (HIS) become a critical part of patient care, it is crucial to build an effective education strategy that facilitates the adoption and sustained use of these systems. The COVID-19 pandemic (2019-2023) has contributed to the rapid shift in virtual education and training for healthcare staff.

Objective: We sought to evaluate the efficacy and long-term sustainability of virtual training for using a HIS by examining opportunities and challenges.

Accelerating AI Innovation in Healthcare Through Mentorship.

The adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the Canadian healthcare system falls behind that of other countries. Socio-technological considerations such as organizational readiness and a limited understanding of the technology are a few barriers impeding its adoption. To address this need, this study implemented a five-month AI mentorship program with the primary objective of developing participants' AI toolset.
