This non-fiction book chapter outlines the digital transformation journey of Al Shifa Hospital as it implements Oracle Health, a comprehensive healthcare information system. The narrative follows key characters, including Dr. Amira Khan, Nurse Fatima, and Ahmed Al-Rashid, as they navigate the challenges and benefits of adopting various Oracle Health modules. These modules encompass patient records (PowerChart), surgical management (SurgiNet), emergency care (FirstNet), laboratory and radiology integration, pharmacy systems, and supply chain management.
The book explores the impact of this digital transformation on patient care, hospital operations, and staff adaptation. It highlights the importance of interoperability between different modules, addressing cybersecurity concerns, and leveraging data analytics for improved decision-making. The narrative also touches on emerging technologies like telemedicine and artificial intelligence in healthcare. Throughout the chapter, the story of patient Layla Mahmoud serves as a case study, demonstrating the benefits of an integrated health system. The implementation's success is measured through key performance indicators, concluding with reflections on the broader implications for healthcare in the UAE.
