Our hospital just updated our EMR system, and it now takes five extra clicks to do something that used to take one. It feels like these systems are designed by people who have never actually stood at a bedside or seen a patient. Am I the only one who feels like technology is making us less efficient every year?

A lot of computer systems and programs have keystrokes that allow you to directly access your desired location. Without having to click and move the mouse around, I have found that using those instead of the mouse saves a lot of time throughout the day. You might check to see if that is a possibility.

The developers didn’t consult with users. I always made sure I did when I was a Y2K consultant.

The biggest issue I see when new systems come in is that nobody takes the time to explain why. It might be extra clicks and time, but maybe it’s being saved somewhere else or making a process better, etc. We just have no idea because it’s so rare that anybody says it.

Having worked on the other side, yes you are right that the people developing these platforms rarely have experience using them. The better ones at least do testing with users but I would say most of my experience has been that people are removed from it.

In my career I've seen things get increasingly complicated, and it often does feel like the engineers who design systems don't much care about the users. Having said that, we're also handling much more information than ever before, and we're able to retrieve it instantly, so I guess all the complexity just comes with the territory.

I absolutely agree. We recently switched our EMR and I hate the new system. I feel like I’m having to learn something new every month and it’s driving me nuts.

I started my new job completely remotely in June and when we go back to the office, it would be a 1.2 hour, 40-mile one way commute.. Would it be entitled of me to ask to come into the office 3x/week since by the time that we return to the office, I’ve already proven that I can work efficiently from home? I feel like it’s a much more sustainable option.
