There are several types of technology in the health organization this includes;

Smart phones, tablets and applications availability of tablets and smart phones has been a cultural shift to medical organizations as they have been used by physicians in hospitals and health organizations to provide important and correct information. The use of these gadgets is somehow disadvantageous as they might breach out patients information which may affect patients and brings bad reputation to the health organization.

Social media the use of social media like blogs, face book and twitter are important in reaching out to patients. Therefore health organizations should come up with a social media plan in order to creating dialogue and ensure analytical monitoring in order to find out how the health organization is being received. The use of social media is also disadvantageous as not every person might be using the social media the health organization uses.

Hybrid operating rooms this is a surgical environment that is used for open surgery they are very important to the health organizations as they saves time and space in performing surgeons. They are also disadvantageous as they cost a lot of money to construct them and many hospitals do not have the required amount to construct them.

Patient information is very essential therefore the use of electronic health records will be an added advantage to the organization as the use of the technology will help to reduce medical errors by health physician; patients will also be given the right information about their health issues.
