address and password.

After you’ve signed in, you’ll see the Powerchart icon. Click on it.

Next, you’ll see this screen:

When you first click into the Cerner AEHR, you’ll see a HIPAA privacy notice that you must read and agree to.

WHAT THIS MEANS

Just like in real life – it constitutes academic dishonesty/violation of privacy if you look at

Patient charts that you do not have permission to view.

Finding a Patient Record in Cerner’s Academic EHR

When you first log in to the Cerner AEHR, this is the screen you will see:

1. Find the patient you were instructed to find, either within an activity or assigned by your instructor, by typing the patient’s last name into the upper right hand corner search box. You would also type in your own last name to access your student record. Click the magnifying glass or hit enter on your keyboard.

Once you’ve opened the patient record, you’ll be able to click through the sections to chart according to your assignments.

Finding a Student Record in Cerner’s Academic EHR

Each student has her own record within your school organization’s, or “hospital’s,” AEHR. Typically, if you give an assignment outside of the prebuilt activities within RealEHRPrep w/ Cerner, students should document within her own chart.

You will find a student record by typing in the last name into the upper right hand corner search box. Click the magnifying glass or hit enter on your keyboard.

The first time you open your record, it will be blank. This is because you have not documented anything yet. As you begin to document the record, it will become a part of your portfolio.

Documenting Ad Hoc Forms in Cerner’s Academic EHR

To document an Ad Hoc Form, pull up the student chart and click on the Ad Hoc icon on the top of the page:

How Students Submit Work in Cerner’s Academic EHR

may include documenting an assessment, developing a plan of care, or composing a critical thinking narrative).

SIGN the document by clicking on the check-mark in the top left corner of the form.

2. Navigate to the Clinical Notes (or Notes) section of the EHR

3. Open the Powerform Textual Notes folder. (Note that you can sort clinical notes in a variety of

ways – these are the directions if you sort by TYPE; you can also sort by DATE – in which case the most recently dated forms will be at the top)

4. Locate the form and double-click to view the text version of the entire documentation form.

ASSIGNABLE ACTIVITIES WITHIN REALEHRPREP WITH CERNER

RealEHRPrep with Cerner provides access to the Cerner’s Academic EHR as well as a guided learning path across the nursing curriculum.

Course Content: Comprises folders that cross the curriculum. Each curricular folder consists of learning activities and quizzes. Activities and quizzes can be assigned as homework PRIOR to coming into class/lab/simulation/clinical and can be used to scaffold learning and competencies across the nursing curriculum. Activities generally direct students into the EHR and the students document within their own chart in the EHR. Students are asked to track completion in the course, and some activities are auto-graded. Auto-graded activities feed into the grade book. Faculty will access and review student work in the EHR. Quizzes are also auto-graded and feed into a grade book.

Case Studies: Contains complex, comprehensive patient cases that relate to a robust medical record within the EHR. These cases could be assigned at the end of a semester or at a mid-way point. There are 2 cases each for Fundamentals, Adult Health, Mental Health, Maternal-Newborn, and Pediatrics. Case study questions are short-answer/ essay style and must be submitted to the instructor for grading (although suggested answers are supplied to the instructor). They rely on extensive use of the EHR, understanding the data, and analyzing the data to make decisions.

Clinical Toolbox: Consists of several types of forms that can be downloaded, printed and used multiple times. These forms and information are for general help and use for the student.

See below for detailed description of activities.
