Electronic medical records (EMR) are digital versions of paper medical records that contain a patient's health information and can be accessed by healthcare professionals from any location. EMRs allow for searchable patient data, documentation of key information, and communication between providers to improve quality of care. While EMRs provide benefits like increased accessibility, flexibility, and time management, they also face challenges including potential privacy violations, difficulties with documentation systems and technology, and inadequate staff training. Overall, EMRs are an important tool for the future of healthcare by enabling electronic charting, documentation, and improving quality, orders, and patient safety.
