Technology Presentation

Topic: Impact & Effectiveness of Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning

The purpose of this Team Technology Presentation is to provide students the opportunity to explore a technology used in the healthcare system.

Describe how Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning supports the patient care experience through the use of information technology and information structures.

Discuss the impact of Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning on professional nursing practice. How has it increased patient safety? Be sure to provide (correctly cited) statistical support! This is a very important part of justifying HOW this has (or has not!) changed patient safety for the better.

Identify how the use of the Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning impacts patient care delivery, quality care measures and monitoring, as well as, risk management (privacy, confidentiality, and security). Based on what you have found in the literature, discuss why Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning has increased effectiveness of patient care and safety.

Analyze the effectiveness of Biometric fingerprinting and retinal scanning including issues related to ethical, legal and infrastructure/operational considerations. Information provided beyond the textbook. This may include things such as budget, costs, etc. How might it affect a particular population and/or geographic region? Provide examples and statically significant data and analysis to support the examples.

Best Practices in Using PowerPoint

Be creative, but informative with your presentation. Use visual communication to further clarify and support the written part of your presentation. You could use example graphs, diagrams, photographs, flowcharts, maps, drawings, animation, video clips, pictograms, tables, and Gantt charts.
Cite all sources within the slide show as well as in the reference slide.

Do not forget to use Speaker’s notes. The purpose of the speaker’s notes area is to “show” the reader what you would “say” if you were presenting the information. This area should not include direct quotes from your research, but still should include paraphrased and properly cited information.
