34、ging nursing workforce and patient demographics Industry initiatives are also a key factor in the need to upgrade or replace the built electronic infrastructure, such as: Electronic health record Patient portable (personal) health record Electronic security Clinical and information technology conver
35、gence Todays modern hospitals technology infrastructure supports the following: Medical procedures and clinical processes Business and enterprise operations Building and facilities requirements A hospitals main function is to save lives and its infrastructure must be capable of supporting that missi
36、on. This standard is intended primarily for, but not limited to, healthcare facilities, such as: Skilled nursing facilities (nursing home) Rehabilitation centers Psychiatric facilities Ambulatory clinics and surgical centers Outpatient clinics Acute care facilities 1.2 Categories of Criteria Two cat
37、egories of criteria are specified - mandatory and advisory. Mandatory criteria generally apply to protection, performance, administration, and compatibility; they specify the absolute minimum acceptable requirements. Advisory or desirable criteria are presented when their attainment will enhance the
38、 general performance of the system infrastructure in all its contemplated applications. Mandatory requirements are designated by the word shall; advisory recommendations are designated by the words should, may, or desirable, which are used interchangeably in this standard. When possible, recommendat
39、ions and requirements are separated to aid in clarity. 2 Purpose This standard is written for use in the design and implementation of information technology systems used within healthcare facilities. This standard provides a reference of common technology and design practices and is not intended to
40、be used by architects and engineers as their sole reference or as a step-by-step design guide. This standard may also be used to determine design requirements in conjunction with the system owner, occupant, or safety and security consultant. 3 Scope This standard provides requirements and recommenda
41、tions for best practices for the design and implementation of information technology systems infrastructure for healthcare institutions and facilities.
