Version 1.6 of Orientation Tracking

Two hundred six thousand eight hundred fifty-eight lines of code comprise the Orientation Tracking web application: Emergency Department Learning Center. Zach Norman, NTS Partner, launched v1.6 today. The new version includes several new features and enhancements to existing features.

Change Log:

• Events – Event Type Unavailable to block specific dates on a Learner or Preceptor’s calendar. Resource Shift Evaluations can have the questions displayed limited to a smaller scope. Maintenance Script removes items from the listing of required evaluations.
• Users – The user profile extends the standard User for the website to determine the data each User can review and the subscriptions/options that each User wishes to exercise. The information is interconnected between the standard user record and the preceptor record for the Orientation Nurse user.
• Data Management – new fields exist on the configuration record for a maximum of days to solicit a response on an evaluation, allowing each Affiliate / Role to guide the maintenance scripts. Additional field manages where images are stored.
• Communication –
  • New message templates added: Learner Message / Preceptor To-Do Message (links to the To-Do list), Learner Welcome Message, Preceptor Message (links to respective public pages, schedule, and includes Userguide attachment), Leader Meeting Post Message on a template.
  • Weekly Update – a message that includes a written introduction by the default user and automated sections for new evaluations, upcoming schedules, recent changes, preceptor comments, preceptor announcements, and important links.
• Images / Media – Added image functions to all Editors, allowing images to be uploaded to the site and displayed. Allows media from external sites (such as YouTube) to be played.
