PITTSBURGH, Oct. 9 /PRNewswire/ — Vocollect Healthcare Systems, Inc. and PointClickCare (PCC), a leading electronic health records and business office software provider for the long-term care industry (LTC), announce that AccuNurse voice-assisted care can now interface with PCC’s clinical software.
AccuNurse gives caregivers the option to access resident care needs on-demand, complete paperwork simply by talking, enhance care-team collaboration with the Silent Page(TM) capability, and track improved clinical outcomes.
The interface between PCC and AccuNurse reduces the information overlap between the clinical software and resident point-of-care information. PCC will provide admissions, discharge, and transfer information from its clinical software directly to AccuNurse. Vocollect Healthcare Systems’ interface will automatically populate the MDS application with AccuNurse’s accurate, point-of-care documentation.
“Communities want additional interface options for streamlining admissions, ensuring accuracy of data, and becoming more automated with regard to MDS reporting,” said Mike Wessinger, CEO, PointClickCare. “Our interface with AccuNurse allows us to continually expand the eco-system of partner products that our customers can take advantage of to complement their PointClickCare implementation.”
A variety of long-term care facilities are already anticipating the combined PCC and AccuNurse solution. For The Highlands at Wyomissing, located in Wyomissing, PA, AccuNurse will be integrated with PCC, the clinical software system utilized by The Highlands. “Automated data transfer between
AccuNurse and PointClickCare are of tremendous value to us,” said Danielle Hammer NHA, director of health services of The Highlands at Wyomissing. “This enables us to better handle the complex challenge of managing our clinical electronic health records and business office applications.”
“With the AccuNurse integration, PointClickCare customers can deliver higher levels of care to their residents with voice-assisted care,” said James Quasey, President of Vocollect Healthcare Systems. “Together, we are committed to providing LTC communities with streamlined information management resulting in improved staffing efficiency, more accurate documentation, and seamless data transfer.”
