How Do I: Incorporate Devops into a Small Health Care Organization

So, before I give any advice and say anything else, I am going to say... you're fighting a bit of an uphill battle. It'll be extremely difficult.

Ushering in DevOps requires a lot of forward thinking, resources, time, and expertise. Your team is extremely small, which means that implementing your own solutions and utilizing open-source tools will take a ton of time, and you don't have that much time to begin with because you're already busy with maintaining your current status quo.

To make real progress, your company, and especially its upper management and finances, will have to fully support you in your DevOps transformation because you'll either need to hire more people or be willing to spend the money and have another company manage your tooling and apps for you. Unless you're looking to work 80+ hour weeks.
