Water Management System Functions and Geographical Features
The Water Management System (WMS) is a computer system supporting water resource management, emphasizing quality control. It consists of sub-systems for resource quality monitoring, sustainable water use, and geo-information display. WMS aids in maintaining national environmental quality databases, operational monitoring, compliance assessment, and trend determination. It also evaluates water resources' status, human health implications, incident management, and toxicity assessments. The system helps in assessing reserves and modeling future scenarios related to water resources.

Embedded Research Conference Workgroup D: Strengthening the Embedded Research Community February 21, 2019
Workgroup vision, aims and goals Goals: Strengthen embedded research community Vision: A team-based embedded research workforce that results from multiple pathways and serves multiple audiences. Aims: Increase research impact within organizations Create clearer pathways for people to pursue embedded research Define core competencies more clearly
Current state: gaps, opportunities Lack of: defined career trajectories for researchers Focus on communications, relationship-building, and strategic business skills Focus on those who come to embedded research mid-career Diversity, ability improve equity Sufficient recruitment efforts Opportunities Evolving field with many possible career trajectories Greater recognition of need by decision makers Data infrastructure improvements
Barriers to achieving vision Lack of sustained funding for research Leadership has short-term goals; ROI for LT investment? Right balance? rapid generalist response v. sustained specialized body of research Inadequate engagement of frontline providers, multidisciplinary staff Few systems actively recruit ERers
Recommendations for (on behalf of) researchers Sustained focus on Forrest LHS competencies PLUS nimbleness, strategy, communications, relationship building, organizational operations. Team competency Equity as topic, diversity in workforce. Mid-career and pre-career pipeline, needs Mentorship, protected time for new hires Develop relationships, funding, organizational understanding Checklist for what makes good LHS employer/partner
Recommendations for research funders Co-fund research with health systems to create skin in the game Fund coordination across grantees Demonstrate impact and ROI of ER Fund career development opportunities, conferences/institutes, dissertations/fellowships, mid-career
Recommendations for (on behalf of) health system leaders Need for embedded research training programs for leaders as ER consumers, co-designers, business case Identify and encourage champions of embedded research Increase external drivers of adoption of embedded research Develop regular communication strategies with researchers Develop pathways for ERers/HSRers to system leadership Small grant programs: innovation, problem-solving
Recommendations for (on behalf of) other stakeholders Who are they? Insurers, patients/caregivers, frontline staff/nurses, middle managers, the public, health systems beyond health care, media Communicate value of ER to different stakeholders Learn where stakeholder get info, who they trust Simulate ER processes, value Engage in ER process Train in ER methods
Next steps Ensure existing conferences relevant to ER LHS/ER content; cross-disciplinary content Articulate and put forward clear core competencies Develop super communicators Improve outreach to both universities and LHSs: Support multiple ER career pathways, differing needs over career stages Increased visibility of ER overall and in all settings
