WHY IS THIS COURSE IMPORTANT?

Breaches of Healthcare IT systems are becoming more and more commonplace. Healthcare organizations continually face cyber threats, which put patient privacy and safety at risk. These threats also have significant impact on business continuity and financial health of all healthcare organizations.

Issues relating to Healthcare IT systems and its security were once the sole domain of engineers in the IT department. This is no longer true. Understanding security issues and protecting against them is job #1 for all healthcare workers from the top to the bottom of the healthcare system.

Advances in technology have made the whole cybersecurity issue pretty complicated to understand, especially for the average healthcare worker. This class on cybersecurity is focused on the non healthcare professional who is just trying to get a familiarization on what cybersecurity is and how they can protect themselves, their organizations and their patients from harm.

  • Curious about everything and want to learn more about healthcare just for the sake of expanding your knowledge base.

WHAT IS YOUR TEACHING STYLE?

My teaching style is a very pragmatic one. I assume you know nothing about this topic and start with the foundation and build from there. Some of these concepts could be challenging, so I sprinkle in as many examples as I can, both non healthcare and healthcare, to assure full understanding of the topic. This is why I have appended "Plain and Simple" to all my courses.

WHY ARE YOU QUALIFIED TO TEACH THIS COURSE?

I spent 35 years in the designing and launching of medical imaging products and services. My career evolved from leading engineering teams, to becoming VP Marketing and then to president of a Healthcare IT firm. It is also based on 15 years of university teaching. at the graduate level in the University environment.

I suppose as a course for absolute beginners who have never been exposed to any form of technology before, this course is fine. However, I think it's a waste of time for anyone who has any amount of experience in IT. It was particularly frustrating when I had to sit through an explanation of the concept of money.
