Health IT

health IT

Demand for jobs in Health Information Technology (HIT) related careers is growing much faster than all other occupations.

As the country’s population grows older and people remain active later in life, jobs that require use of HIT will become increasingly important. There are great job opportunities in HIT for people with ALL levels of education – if they have the right training.

Best We Can Be’s innovative Health Information Technology (HIT) program uses actual HIT found in clinical settings to teach students. HIT provides a foundation to explore many interdisciplinary connections in STEM subjects. It encourages students interested in Medicine and in Information Technology to collaborate on exciting team projects – some of which have been presented at international academic conferences.

An innovative, unique and exciting educational experience. Kids in the program are enthusiastic and engaged! What a unique opportunity to bring the real world of business and careers to high schoolers – my child loved it and learned a lot!
William Berson, Parent of 12th Grader
I’m thrilled with this program. My son has grown and matured and been challenged every step of the way. Through Best We Can Be, he has found confidence and self-assurance on assignments that stimulated and excited him and made his brain work hard. I no longer have to remind him about his weekly sessions. When it’s time, he goes online eagerly and happily.
Deborah Hirsch, Parent
Best We Can Be is an amazing program. I have learned so much since I found out about it in the beginning of freshman year in high school. The great thing about it is that it doesn’t only focus on one or two subjects. It can be about a variety of things, which makes it more interesting. We could learn anything from human psychology to cryptography. Not only that, but last year, a couple of us along with Dr. Piliouras partook in the American Society for Engineering Education Zone 1 Conference, w…

TCR’s publications are an excellent resource for all nurses – especially Advanced Practice Nurses (CRNAs, CNMs, CNSs and NPs) – considering the selection of an Electronic Health Record system or learning about the implementation process.
Nadia Sultana, Clinical Assistant Professor, Program Coordinator, Nursing Informatics Master’s and Advanced Certificate Programs, New York University College of Nursing
Being a part of Best We Can Be has been one of the best experiences I have had. I have seen so many students benefit from my presentations. The enthusiasm and curiosity that the participants bring motivates me to impart as much wisdom as I can. Afterwards, I love hearing about how I was able to change the lives of the students I spoke with. I have truly enjoyed sharing my knowledge and wisdom with the Best We Can Be program. Best We Can Be gives students the unique opportunity to explore a va…

Dr. Piliouras is one of the most trusted professionals I have ever known.
Janice Hallquist, Yoga Teacher, Owner, Riverside Flowing Yoga, LLC
I participated in the Best We Can Be program over the Summer, and have been part of the team since then. I very much enjoy learning about the many different topics in the program, particularly the computer-related lessons. We learn about coding, hacking, protection, and other similar lessons. Although these are my personal favorite activities and lessons, we also learn and view presentations on other topics, such as countries like Turkey and India, what is in the food we eat, and so on — and a…
P.H., 8th Grader
This is quality work that focuses on success factors implementing an Office Practice Management and Electronic Health Records system.
John Moustakakis, CIO, Westchester Medical Center, Hawthorne, NY
Dr. Piliouras excels on two fronts – not only in her technology expertise across industries, but also in her ability to communicate her ideas via words, graphics and new Web products to a wide audience. Whether it’s product development, consulting or business writing, Teresa provides the expert advice and guidance her colleagues and clients need to advance.
Lorraine Sileo, VP Research, PhoCusWright Inc.
Time management is a problem for many students and is the root cause of many academic problems. Students who wait until the night before an exam to start studying don’t learn or retain information as well as students who plan ahead. This time management program really makes sense to me. At last, high school students have an alternative to quiet desperation. Best We Can Be Time Management series is a great program! I highly recommend it.
Anita Cook, Assistant Professor and Counselor, Westchester Community College, Westchester, NY
