Canada's health care system is under heavy strain; there is too little money and too few resources and workers to meet the demands of the Canadian population. The current system is not sustainable, changes need to be made. An approach that can be taken to make the healthcare system more effective is by changing current technical tools (such as EHRs) to address the social nature of human beings. EHRs need to be designed to complement the way humans and technology interact with each other, and address the changes in both technology as well as clinical roles and processes. (Coiera, E. (2004). Four rules for the reinvention of health care. BMJ, 328(7449), 1197–9. doi:10.1136/bmj.328.7449.1197)
