Abstract
As a university hospital, it prides itself on using the latest techniques, medical and diagnostic curriculum, as well as up-to-the-minute medical equipment and fully equipped facilities. It has over 1700 employees and accommodates more than 311 beds and 9 operating theatres, a number of internal wards plus an intensive care unit with 12 beds. Healthcare organizations now believe in improved efficiency, reduced costs, improved patient care and quality of services, and safety when they are preparing to apply new information and communication technology (ICT) based applications. Health IT systems allow the gathering of data for use for quality management, outcome reporting, and public health disease surveillance and reporting. However, development is needed with all health IT, particularly concerning design, implementation, and integration between platforms within the surroundings of work.
