THE CARENOTES SYSTEM COVERS THE NEEDS OF EVERY CLINICIAN

CareNotes provides patient education for every stage of care to help your clinicians deliver the healthcare information patients need. And all CareNotes are consistent with the information you could be providing to patients and family members on your hospital Web site through the Consumer Health Solution.

  • •  Nurses: Save time finding the appropriate materials, and ensure that patient education tools are reliable, evidence-based, and understandable.
  • •  Pharmacists: View, customize, and print more than 2,100 drug topics to help patients understand and manage their prescription and over-the-counter medications.
  • •  Physicians: Access customizable, peer-reviewed patient education materials in 48 different specialties — including Allergy, Immunology, Sports Medicine, Cardiology, Vascular Surgery, Hematology, Pediatrics, Neurology, Women's Health, and more.
Additionally, the CareNotes System has been built with the necessary data structure and integration points to enable integration with health information systems. This easy-to-implement solution integrates seamlessly within a hospital's HIS, EMR, and Web Portal, connecting clinicians directly to relevant, evidence-based patient education at any point in the care process
