We have found that if it is not attached to something it will get
broken!  We purchased 15 fujitsu lifebooks when we went live w/ eMAR.
They are little laptops w/ keyboards and touch screens w/ styluses.  All
but about 5 or 6 have been absolutely destroyed!  Screen smashed and
shattered, keyboards broken, screens detached.  They drop them so much
and throw them in the cabinets.  We will never purchase anything like
that again.  It's not that the equipment was bad, we just have careless
users and also accidents.  We are now in the process installing
workstations in each room.

Subject: EDM point & click tablets




I am wondering how point & click tablets work with EDM, does anyone have
experience with this that you could share? I know meditech is keyboard
driven and am wondering if point & click tablets have been successfully
(or unsuccessfully) used with EDM. I would like to give the ED options
and it seems that point & click would be quick, the assessments would
need to be created with point & click in mind - very little text entry.


Thank you,
