DIGITAL TOOLS AT WORK
Currently, I am a full-time student, but the last job I held was as a lead nurse in a private medical center. In my work as a nurse, I had to use many different digital services such as Pegasos, Miranda, Doctorex, Kanta.fi, the Käypähoito recommendations, and Terveysportti. The numerous usernames and passwords made it challenging to perform my duties, but of course, they are very important for data protection and security. I must also mention that the various tools facilitated and sped up my work as well as access to information. Now, that we have digital means, we don’t have to use paper. There has definitely been good digital development.
ChatGPT
I can ask ChatGPT about diseases, their symptoms, treatment, and treatment recommendations. Of course, I critically evaluate the information provided by the AI. The information comes very quickly, and I am surprised by how comprehensively and qualitatively the AI has answered my questions. I believe there is certainly potential in AI.
I use the WhatsApp app a lot in my daily life for messaging or making voice calls. You can create groups there and share information and photos with all group members at the same time.
YouTube
On YouTube, I can listen to various lectures and presentations. You can also easily find quality information there that can be used and applied in the workplace. In my free time, I listen to and watch music videos and various programs like sketches.
I use the Pinterest app daily because it has great food recipes and table setting tips. Additionally, it offers advice and instructions related to women’s fashion and hairstyles. You can find a wide variety of ideas and guides for home decorating and fitness there. Pinterest also has different greeting cards that can be sent digitally to relatives, acquaintances, and friends.
In my most recent job, I was active on LinkedIn. There, information and opinions were shared with others. I also used it for the company’s marketing by informing about public lectures and the services of a private medical center. It’s a good platform for networking with other businesses and individuals. It’s also a great way to find new job opportunities.
The elements of successful digital usage are usability, functionally, reliability, performance, security, compatibility, social interaction, user analytics, updates and development, feedback and support.
