Hospitalist App, Post Eval, S10

Began working on a new app for hospitalists, but during the preliminary scope meeting it was discovered that what the customers need may be better accomplished with a report generated by a different team.  Now I need to wait until it’s determined whether or not that team can really fill all the customer’s needs.  If not then the project will come back to my team.

Had my first evaluation yesterday and it went really well.  I received high marks for my work in all categories (productivity, team contribution, customer satisfaction, adherence to core values, and job function/team skills), so that was gratifying.  Got good feedback from my manager and was able to give him my views on the challenges currently facing our team, as well as what my professional development goals are for the next year.  After working here for a little over a year I can say that I really love my job, the kind of work I do, and the environment I’m working in.  I really feel like I’m making a positive difference.

The S10 app is being coded and will hopefully be available for viewing sometime in the next couple of weeks.  Went through another design iteration on the UI screens, simplifying the entry screens and consolidating fields that were repeated across various forms.  The result should be a more efficient and usable interface for the S10 customers.  Can’t wait to test the UI with the customers once it’s fully coded.

I also continue to be consulted for various projects including FAQs, Help Pages, Intranet and Internet content, layout and best practices.  Enough to keep me busy!
