DietaryAccurate Communication of a Patient's Special Needs
Many patients have specific diet requirements - the Responder system can help facilitate communications between nursing staff and the dietary department of these diet restrictions. The system can send via a text message a request for a dietary consultation, alerting of a need or of a patient with diabetes or a cardiac condition.
Integration Speeds Flow of Information Between Dietary and Caregivers
When a specific diet is ordered for a patient, the dietitian may want to consult with the primary caregiver. With Responder, the dietitian can quickly and efficiently speak with the RN by calling his or her wireless device, bypassing the unit secretary all together. Also, physicians often write orders for special diets, with the touch of a process button the physician can initiate a notification to the dietitian, eliminating delays in relaying this information to food services. This workflow and more can be customized to your facility. Better Workflow Means Less Waste
You work hard to prepare the right meals for the right patient at the right time. Nothing is more frustrating than delivering that food and the patient is not in his or her room. Whether the patient has been transferred to a different room, is out of the room for a test, or has been discharged - Responder allows staff to review a floor's census before the food is delivered, thereby avoiding wasted food and a wasted trip. |
