Interoperability allows EMR and nurse call system to work together

MT. PROSPECT, IL (February 4, 2015)

new software interface launched today by the Rauland Responder® critical communications solution is the first instance of a nurse call system integrating directly to a hospital patient’s electronic medical record, providing the ability for the systems to share information bi-directionally.

Under current practice, patient information must be charted manually – sometimes on a paper log, sometimes into the electronic record, and often only as the caregiver has time. That can result in delays in all caregivers having access to the most current patient data and status. Now, the new integration can share that information bi-directionally and automatically in a timely way.

The solution, Responder All TouchTM, manages documentation of routine nursing activity by automating the routine charting of patient interactions – streamlining clinical workflow with timely data input and helping to reduce errors and delays in charting patient information.
