Increase in cancer center staff effort related to electronic patient portal use.
The authors examined patterns of use of electronic portals by clinic staff at a National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center. They found that from 2011 to 2014, staff portal activity increased approximately 10-fold, and sixteen percent of all actions occurred outside clinic hours. They concluded that cancer center employee use of an electronic patient portal has increased markedly over time, particularly among nursing staff.

Frontline health care workers and perceived career mobility: do high-performance work practices make a difference?
This study examined how high-performance work practices (HPWPs) that focus on career development are related to an individuals' perceived mobility with their current employer, and also examined the relationships between perceived mobility, job satisfaction, and turnover intent. The findings suggest that tuition remission and educational release time positively predict perceived mobility, while measures of perceived organizational support in one's current position and perceived supervisor support for career development are also significant predictors of perceived mobility. Additionally, perceived mobility is a significant predictor of job satisfaction and intent to stay with current employer.
