Personas and Scenarios for the National Electronic Health Record
December 29, 2017
Over 500 citizens of Ireland, including clinicians, patients, healthcare workers, carers and others from across the Health Service and broader society, all contributed to the publication of the finalised Personas and Scenarios. The Personas and Scenarios will form a key foundation for the National Electronic Health Record programme and the Clinical Strategy programme. A total of 168 Personas and Scenarios have been created and have been held up as best in class by WHO as a method of engagement.
The user-centred design development of the Personas is truly putting the patient at the centre. This type of collaboration encourages a more open and participatory democracy in our health service. eHealth Ireland worked with patients and healthcare professionals to develop Personas and Scenarios that are specific for Ireland to ensure that the procurement of an electronic health record for Ireland will be specifically designed for Irish citizens and healthcare professionals.

Jane Carolan, Interim CIO said:
�While this is a key milestone for the National EHR Programme we will continue to welcome input and participation to ensure that these Personas and Scenarios remain current and complete even further over time. I am personally delighted at the level of clarity conveyed in the Personas and Scenarios and the levels of ambition for our National EHR Programme which we are looking forward to realising in the future.�

IPPOSI a patient-led organisation involved in the creation of the personas, CEO Derick Mitchell said:
�From the patient perspective, these clinically-validated Personas and Scenarios are quite brilliant in making the benefits of Electronic Health Records very real. In IPPOSI, we envisage these as forming the cornerstone of the future engagement and communication processes between Irish clinicians, health service workers & patients which will make a National Electronic Health Record a reality in Ireland.�

This article describes the very coda of a process to develop the system objectives and functionality for an Irish National EHR System.
The process to get to where they presently are began a few years ago.

A good place to start is to have a browse of this document:
It is really impressive how the consultation processes have operated and how the focus appears to be one of technology being shaped to serve patient and clinician needs.
Ireland is recovering from an economic calamity (the GFC as we call it) and is very much focused on both adoption of the best approaches from all over the world (they are being a slow follower!) and only doing what is demonstrably going to make a difference.
I very much liked their Cloud First Policy.
Browse for yourself but this team seems be a sensible number of adults seeking reasonable outcomes in reasonable timeframes.
