Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 27, 2004 -
HealthProLinkÂ’s clinical documentation system is now available on Pocket PC handheld devices. Pharmacists can document clinical interventions, adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and medication errors on the run.
The convenient format of the HealthProLink System is simple to learn and easy to use. Pharmacists have been able to document clinical interventions, ADRs and medication errors on Palm OS devices for years and are now able to do that on Pocket PCs. Drop down menus, keypads and minimal text entry allow reports to be completed in only seconds. "The HealthProLink System on a Pocket PC platform is efficient enough to make practitionerÂ’s and clinical pharmacistÂ’s jobs easier," states Charles Westergard, VP Product Development at HealthProLink.
Pharmacists using HealthProLink are more productive, helping to offset pharmacy staffing shortages. HealthProLink improves the productivity and effectiveness of the pharmacy staff by providing instant access to clinical tools and information and streamlining the documentation process for clinical activities. “Having an application in a handheld format that’s accessible to all pharmacists is by far the single strongest attribute,” said Dennis Hoover, Director of Pharmacy at Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital.
As soon as the pharmacy staff syncs their handheld computers, pharmacy managers can access the data at a secure HealthProLink server, and generate customized reports to meet their needs. HealthProLink reports enable management to quickly document the savings generated by clinical interventions. These cost savings are used throughout hospitals to justify pharmacists: “HealthProLink’s cost saving figures helped me justify a new pharmacy position,” states Andrew Levitsky at Boston Medical Center. These reports facilitate the monitoring and trending of performance. HealthProLink reports also provide the data required to identify problems and to improve the medication use process.
HealthProLink provides solutions to major issues facing hospitals today: enhancing clinical documentation, increasing productivity to offset staffing shortages and reducing medication costs.
