EHR Devices Arriving
Devices for the activation of IHealth continue to arrive at CDH, which will complement the devices already onsite. The devices being delivered include barcode scanners, document scanners, patient and specimen Zebra label printers, controlled prescription printers, workstations on wheels (WoWs), lab carts, desktop computers, and more. You can view the allocation of devices by CDH unit here:
You will notice IHealth Technology team members on site periodically over the next several weeks to install, configure, and test the devices. Please note that the devices will not be ready for use until this work is completed. In the meantime, if your unit has any questions about devices, please don’t hesitate to submit an email to our team at PDOTechnologyAlignmentTeam@islandhealth.ca.
Thank you for your patience as our IHealth colleagues work to get these devices set up and functioning to support the Go-Live.
