I hope an election is called soon because we need to get rid of Justin Trudeau, and fast!

Because this is just embarrassing.

Canada is facing the biggest crisis in decades and Trudeau is content with stupid gimmicks.

What does it matter if there’s a GST holiday when we’re facing 25% increase in tariffs?

But there's nothing anyone in Canada can do about Trump being a madman who loves being able to threaten everyone with regressive taxes.

I suppose Canada could start digging smuggling tunnels and we could all pretend Canadian goods were made in some warehouse in Detroit.

@alienghic Trudeau isn’t going away because of Trump. He’s going away because he’s Trudeau.

It just so happens Trump is one more reason the Liberal Party will be decimated next election.

This morning, I took my wife to the hospital for routine blood tests that had been scheduled for some time. Everything was going smoothly: check-in, number, waiting room. Suddenly, everything came to a halt and shut down. I was connected to the hospital’s public Wi-Fi and noticed that my connection also went down.

Having managed a couple of similar facilities, I immediately understood what had happened. I saw the staff panicking and calling the technicians, but they quickly reorganized within 10 minutes. They managed to process everyone who already had a number and then proceeded with the others in the order of their arrival. Despite the ten-minute delay (even though people started complaining right away), they were extremely efficient.

I later confirmed that the entire booking, check-in, and queue system is “in the cloud.” The hospital experienced a connectivity interruption, and all related services stopped. The staff no longer had access to anything, so a technician sent the lists to a manager via another channel, and everything resumed manually.

For years, I’ve insisted that certain things MUST be local. The healthcare facilities I manage have all the necessary systems for the operation of the facility internally, including patient records. External services like websites, emails, etc., are secondary.

Everything essential must always be accessible locally and, in special cases, it should be possible to physically access the servers and connect directly to them, bypassing any network/switch failures.

There has been only one interruption in the past, due to human error. Today, we have redundant servers (not HA on virtualizers, but two machines running the same software with replicated databases - on separate power lines) so such an issue shouldn’t happen anymore.

Not everything can be anticipated, but history is a great teacher. The Internet connection will eventually be interrupted 😀

When it comes to the health and survival of people, there are no compromises.

Exactly.
All critical data should be held locally as primary, and clouds should be for backups and shares. If making cloud as primary, multiple physical connections with different routes should be always kept, if the data there is "critical".

There are rules that can be followed, but medical records for 51 million people do not need to be stored at every hospital.

@kevinrns
Of course, single hospital doesn't need to host and manage records of other hospitals. But keeping their own patients' records locally as primary AND backing up in real time to (shared governmental) cloud would be wanted.
With this, they can access to their records even when external connections are lost and safe keep their records for hazards.

There can be "local cloud" built using the organization's (or personal) own computers co-located on some datacenter. (Would be costly, though, but put them as remote backup site helps BCP. No need to be public cloud, but it would be trade-offs.)

Epistatacadam 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

To support you, when cloud services first arrived, we frontline workers received explicit instructions: no clinical data was to be put on the cloud.
The director of IT changed, the new one had no experience of running the system having gone on an IT course after attaining his management qualifications.
Within weeks a new directive came out, all vital data was to be stored on the cloud as it was more secure.
It was but at peak times it just wasn't available!=> Copies on USB drives!

So many people are so reliant on things that they ultimately have no control over. I know how to do things the 'old-fashioned' way.

Local also means that you need to have more FTE IT staff in order to deploy, secure, update and monitor. I understand why SaaS vendors like Epic are being used more and more. Budgets vs. redundancy.

Debra Shannon 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

about 6 years ago a doctor asked me the best way to set up his new office and patients files. I recommended a server that was not connected to the internet to keep his patients records. The program on the web he wanted to use we could basically restyle to suit his needs. He found that idea unacceptable and went with a cloud based company. I often wonder how many times he goes down or needs to tell patients their files have been compromised.

kikebenlloch 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

I couldn't agree more. Choose whichever architecture you wish (IDK -even periodical local copies of cloud repositories if nothing else is available or supported by management) but ask yourself if critical services are really autonomous or else can be brought down by not-so-extreme circumstances and render basic vital information inaccessible. If I depend on a single wire (literally or figuratively speaking) I'm likely to run into trouble.

Cloud-based critical infrastructure has to have redundant connectivity using multiple providers to prevent things like this from happening. And ideally, one cloud should be mirrored to another with a second provider so that N+1 redundancy is maintained at every level. Redundant clouds, and redundant connectivity, otherwise you're at risk of failure at multiple single points.

ulutoh 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Regardless of your experiences, a hospital's records and processes *mus* still be hosted in a secure cloud.

Especially in countries where large medical corps operate multiple hospitals in different parts of the country under their name.

Such hospitals *must* be able to access a patient's records from their other branches at all times, and schedule appointments for patients in different branches where required.

I work in healthcare IT, and this would be great, an on-site replication of recent data. Even if the data isn't in some distant cloud, it's often off site in a regional data centre, humorously referred to as "on prem".

Qole 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Our (Canadian) healthcare system also has the manual downtime procedures that you describe, and they're amazingly effective, considering how much is lost when the 'net goes down, but I agree that a local replication would be an excellent backup for connectivity loss. It happens a lot, especially in our rural facilities in the mountains.

TomAoki 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

@X31Andy @kevinrns
Old enough embedded systems doesn't have any ability for Internet access, or even network access (except for their specially-crafted control lines).
This made them "secure".
But recent IoTs like webcams has too much functionality (as needed to function) to be able to insecure. Thus, if any of its components turned out to be vulnerable, there SHALL not be any option NOT to update.
Once the vendor stops providing security fixes for them, it should be considered as (equivalent as) reaching physical EoL of it and need quick replacing, if still needed. If not, should be disconnected from network.

And even if it was a cloud system hack, that's Epic's problem (or whatever). Which sucks, but they at least have a whole SOC and IR team to manage that sort of thing. If there was time and budget, and the API allowed for it, I'd set some nightly job to sync current day schedule and current patient records to a local server, have the office buy a high speed printer, and have the BCP be: have local IT support go and print off the backups, and hand them off to everyone, and have paper forms for them to write today's notes on. When it all comes back, folks can work on entering the back records.

Patient records are legally not allowed to be seen, even by a nurse on the same shift. Where private health records are stored, how easily they can be copied or accessed is a necessary, proposal preventing, part of the equation.

Moving from one doctor to another practice includes approving the sharing of medical records explicitly. For example.

@Demiurg @Jess👾 @TomAoki

TomAoki 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Of course.
Sharing patient records SHALL be agreed and approved by the patient himself/herself unless it is mutually impossible but mandatory for urgent rescue and his/her family approved.

@Demiurg @Jess👾 @Kevin Russell

Jess👾 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

It's been quite a while since I've seen actual healthcare privacy law, but IIRC, the HIPAA law itself is fairly vague about the specific implementation of privacy policy within a healthcare provider organization - mostly it just requires that there be an established policy for maintaining privacy within the org, and that there be explicit approval when sharing records with other organizations. So long as your BCP is well documented and signed off by the privacy officer, the auditors shouldn't have an issue with it.
