Biography
Joanne is a specialist in the design of efficient and effective deployment of innovative smart technology to improve the delivery of healthcare services.
Completion of her PhD in Health Informatics led to the invention of the world’s first and only healthcare specific patient journey modelling tool. Currently being patented, these tools help healthcare providers to visualise how services are presently delivered and what improvements and ICT services are required to enhance patient safety, satisfaction and outcomes.
Joanne has applied her innovative ICT approaches both nationally and internationally and was recently invited to present a workshop on the Meaningful Use of Electronic Health Records (EHR) in the United States.
Joanne is passionate about teaching up-and-coming ICT graduates about advanced Health Informatics topics and foundational ICT methods, tools and techniques.
