Sarah Collins, RN, PhD is a Senior Clinical and Nurse Informatician in Clinical Informatics Partners eCare at Partners Healthcare Systems and an Instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital Division of Internal Medicine and Primary Care. Her research, as well as her applied clinical informatics work, is focused on modeling, developing, and evaluating standards-based, patient-centered collaborative informatics tools to further patient safety, knowledge development, clinical decision-support, and coordinated patient-centered care.

Dr. Collins is an experienced critical care nurse and holds a PhD in Nursing Informatics from Columbia University School of Nursing. She was a National Library of Medicine Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at Columbia University’s Department of Biomedical Informatics. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Pennsylvania, where she minored in Health Care Management.

Statement of Purpose

Over the past 5 years, patient portals have been increasingly adopted by health care systems throughout the United States. To date, adoption and use of patient portals has largely been limited to the ambulatory setting: patients use these tools at home to review their health data (lab results, medications, etc.), schedule appointments, request prescription refills, pay bills, and communicate with providers. Increasingly, patients and caregivers are interested in accessing health information and communicating with providers during a hospital stay.

However, current patient portals are not appropriately configured for use in the inpatient setting to support the dynamic and complex nature of hospital-based care. Moreover, there is scant evidence regarding optimal user-centered design and use of inpatient engagement technologies.

Practitioners who are committed to using technology to increase patient engagement in the inpatient setting may participate in this webinar to address knowledge gaps about current practices; design considerations that may improve patient portal use and value; and new directions that may contribute to patient portals that help lead to safer, more coordinated, and more dignified patient-centered care in the acute care setting.

Target Audience

The target audience for this activity is professionals and students interested in biomedical and health informatics.

Learning Objective

After this live activity, the participant should be better able to:

Consider current and potential user-centered design features of a patient portal in the acute care setting that increases patient engagement, facilitates clinician-patient communication, and contributes to more positive health outcomes.
