Electronic health information systems (EHIS) containing standardized assessment data (e.g., RAI-Home Care, Outcome and Assessment Information Set [OASIS]) hold considerable promise, but their potential has yet to be fully realized. Literature was searched for strategies on implementing and using EHIS, including barriers and facilitators of their use in home care. Results of this review will be discussed in terms of their implications for the future development and use of EHIS in home care, and for future research.
