About ACACI                                                                                      

Austin Centre for Applied Clinical Informatics (ACACI) is a department within Austin Health.  ACACI was formed in July 2005 to support the development of clinical informatics throughout Austin Health. ACACI is a specialised team providing health informatics support to a staff of around 6000.  Since its inception, ACACI has facilitated a number of clinical informatics projects, hosted undergraduate and post graduate students.

Our Vision                                                                                                    

ACACI will be a leader in clinical informatics research and development. Linking clinicians with high quality informatics applications, ACACI will promote an innovative, safe and secure environment supporting superior patient care.    

 

What are we working on now?

In 2009, ACACI staff joined the Austin Health Clinical System Project Group and participated in the IPS (Implementation Planning Study), in relation to the statewide Clinical System Implementation.  

 

Following on from this Austin Health signed on to implement the Clinical System referred to as Cerner Millennium.  Hence ACACI staff are focussing on implementation activities. More information on this statewide project here
