VoiceCare is a voice messaging system for shift-to-shift reporting which improves patient outcomes and nursing practice. This system allows nurses to pick up the phone and record their reports any time during their shift - so they're finished reporting before shift change. Oncoming nurses hear reports immediately and still have time to ask questions.
Features include:
automated and standardized report template containing:
- patient identifier
- patient history
- patient safety alerts
- pertinent recent clinical information
- daily patient goals
standardized approach to hand-off communications
VoiceCare technology improves patient outcomes by increasing the time nurses spend in direct patient care. This freed up time has shown to have a direct bearing on quality of care and patient outcomes. Additional benefits include:
improved communication among caregivers
improved accuracy and accessibility of patient information
smooth patient hand-off
flexibility of exchange of hand-off communications at the beginning and the end of each shift and for patient transfers
time to give report on average per nurse is reduced by 10 minutes – giving time back to the nurse to spend with his/her patients
