Microsoft Suite in hospital settings

Hello. Just looking to gather some information about how health organizations, mainly hospitals, have integrated the adoption and use of Microsoft suite effectively. Do you provide training materials/ documents? Is it role specific? Our organization is seeking to find tried and true methods to have productivity tools such as teams and SharePoint adopted and effectively used.

    It promote the use of SharePoint as a centralized document management and collaboration platform. Educate employees on the benefits of using SharePoint for efficient document sharing, version control, and team collaboration. Leadership within the https://www.ghurkitrust.org.pk/ should actively support and promote the use of Microsoft suite tools. Encourage managers and supervisors to lead by example and utilize the tools themselves, fostering a culture of adoption and effective use.

    spizzoo I am actually right now working on a document for our clinical staff on teams communication. I think our biggest downfall is we didn’t promote teams as a communication tool even though it is Hippa compliant (this was a decision that came from the top down). Now we are having to back track. 

    I work for a 90,000 person healthcare organization so we don’t have a lot of specific training based on role because there are so many. But we have a community where people can come ask questions and when we can me and my colleague like to go into the hospitals and meet people and chat! 

    all that to say our training materials for M365 are pretty general, but we are also looking to maybe make some adoption stories to share with folks. 

    Im hopeful you get some good answers as I am interested as well!

        My understanding is right now it is just pagers, and their personal phones. Some people probably get smartphones but not sure. They also use picklephones, which I am not 100% sure what those are. What do you mean by frontline approach?
