Dr. Crounse from Microsoft updates us and gives some more of the inside scoop on the X-Box and how it is making it's way in to hospitals....I had a conversation the other evening with a physician and we somehow got on the subject and one quick comment made was "What hospital is that?  I might think about applying to be on staff there as well!"  Could we be on to something new here, X-Box privileges...the surgeons are already scoring with Wii...does this hold any water in attracting new physicians to be on staff?  All kidding aside the X-Box is appearing to be a nice addition to the hospitals...and I did a search just of my own blog on articles I have included relative to the X-Box and came up with a few stories as well from which you can read here...There's also a link to a news station video at his Health blog that will give a few more details and show it being used by a patient.  BD 

"Previously on HealthBlog I told you about some terrific work being done at Arkansas Children's Hospital to improve the patient experience for hospitalized children.  The hospital's own IT staff had developed a bedside information, communication, and entertainment center based on Microsoft Windows Media Center and Xbox 360.  The solution is now being implemented hospital-wide."
