 PatientSafe Solutions, a leader in clinical communication and collaboration solutions for the healthcare enterprise, has released a suite of new functionality within the  PatientTouch Clinical Communication platform. Care team efficiency and satisfaction is strengthened with enhancements for physicians and new mobile-enabled clinical workflows for nurses.

On-Call Schedules and Privacy for Physicians
Driving physician adoption is a significant and ongoing focus for PatientSafe, and the new PatientTouch release directly addresses physician demands for privacy, convenience and efficiency. Physicians using the Bring Your Own Device version of PatientTouch now can protect their personal information in multiple ways, including the use of a custom caller ID when contacting patients and masking their personal cell phone numbers within internal directories. Their privacy is maintained while still allowing the care team to contact them directly when needed. For added convenience, physicians can indicate their preferred method of contact and current status to let others know the best way to reach them when in the office, on call, or in surgery.

The expanded suite of secure communication tools further increases efficiency and simplifies care collaboration for physicians. Physicans can quickly log in to PatientTouch using biometric authentication and enjoy instant access to all on-call and assigned care team members and providers across the health system network. They can view their own and other provider’s current and future on-call schedules within the app, and contact providers currently on-call with just one touch.

In addition, physicians can view a summary of recent patient history directly within the PatientTouch app. A plug-in enables clinical data, such as labs, vitals and intake/output, to be imported in real time from the EMR and displayed in PatientSafe’s mView. Click here to continue >>
