Vocera Announces New Platform Enhancements to Improve Patient, Staff Experience - Seite 2

Part of the Vocera Platform, the newly designed patient and family communication solution, Care Inform, is now accessible from the Vocera smartphone app. Clinicians using the collaboration app to communicate with care teams can also engage with patients and families by launching Care Inform from the mobile app to record personalized discharge instructions. They can also share a range of educational materials in the form of text messages, videos, and support documents.

The Vocera Platform unifies different types of communication at critical touch points in a patient’s journey. Clinicians who engage with patients during rounds, hospital discharge or follow-up care calls can easily send patient requests or service recovery notifications to team members using a hands-free Vocera Badge, Smartbadge, or a Vocera app on their smartphones or web console. Care Experience business intelligence, which now includes sentiment analysis, provides multi-dimensional analysis of patient experience across units and different facilities within a health system to identify gaps and improve processes throughout the care continuum.

“Our Care Experience suite of solutions is integral to the Vocera Platform, helping improve patient communication and education, and ensuring the healthcare experience is as frictionless as possible for patients, families and care teams,” said Brent Lang, president and CEO of Vocera.
