SCTC Features New and Exciting Health Informatics Program
Simpson County Technical Center (SCTC) is pleased to feature its Health Informatics program — a new, exciting and trending field of informational technology dedicated to the health systems and processes that keep technology at the forefront of advancement in the medical field.
A popular degree program within the health care management system, Health Informatics includes the integration of health care sciences, computer sciences, information science, cognitive science and information technology to assist in the management of health care information. Informatics deals with the resources, devices and methods to utilize acquisition, storage, retrieval and use of information in health and medicine. Tools include medical terminology, information and communication systems, and computer technology. Health care informatics provides electronic access to medical records for patients, doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, insurance companies and health information technicians.
SCTC’s instructor of Health Informatics is Kenyatta Durr, who is a recognized leader in Mississippi’s economy, thanks to her recent completion of the Master Teacher of Economics program from the Mississippi Council on Economic Education. Durr has mastered the knowledge of basic and advanced-level economic concepts and has acquired skills that will help her students achieve economic and financial literacy.
