For this assignment, select one clinical practice issue that involves a specific medication. Using a Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) system, design a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) that would be embedded in the EHR at a Nursing Home/ Long Term Care Facility. Your CDSS must connect with CPOE to include a medication. You must link these two applications within the design.

General Guidelines:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

Use primary sources published within the last 5 years. Provide citations and references for all sources used.

Directions:

Write a 1,000-1,250 word paper that provides the following:

1. Specific details of the clinical issue involving a specific medication

2. The rationale behind your design development.

3. A description of how this CDSS will be implemented and adopted by fellow clinicians.

4. An assessment of challenges and proposed solutions which might apply to this scenario (e.g., information loss, communication breakdown).
