Voice Assisted Communication Systems
Today, many in the long term care industry are under constant pressure to increase efficiency, increase reimbursements and reduce costs while improving the quality of life for their residents.
Paramount in the industry, TeleHealth offers a voice-assisted care system to support these efforts.
The voice-assisted product, AccuNurse, creates a two-way dialogue between the care staff and the resident information needed to provide the best care possible. With bedside access to information, staff members are able to hear care plan details and document activities as they are completed. TeleHealth’s voice-assisted care communication system provides staff with the most efficient and most accurate way of delivering care, resulting in a higher quality of care, an improved patient experience and maximized Medicaid and Medicare reimbursements.
By simply speaking into a lightweight headset, staff members are able to record all patient information at any time from anywhere in the facility. Unique in the industry, voice-assisted care makes it possible to:
- Build resident-centered care plans in minutes. By leveraging the use of this technology, care givers can simply point and click to build a detailed care plan.
- Cut shift overlaps with end-of-shift voice reports. During a shift, a care giver will wear a small, lightweight headset that will record everything they do. When the next shift arrives, the new care giver simply has to put on the headset and listen to what the previous staff member has recorded.
- Create charts by talking. AccuNurse has built in voice cues, allowing care to automatically be documented, transmitted and available immediately online. Also, the information that is gathered is translated into MDS format.
- Provide paging assistance. When a care giver simply says “page”, they are able to get help whenever you need it, wherever you are in the facility, without having to leave a patient’s bedside.
- Eliminate paper reports. ADL scores are calculated on a daily basis, exception reports are automatically created, CNA progress reports are automatically generated and assessments with MDS scores are calculated automatically.
