The Future of Skilled Nursing WORK WHERE Technology Matters

Widespread utilization of health information technology (HIT) to optimize delivery of care and improve resident outcomes.

Electronic health records (EHRs) and health information exchange (HIE) platforms are utilized to enhance acute to post-acute care transitions and decrease unnecessary costs.

Work in an environment that is data driven, and focused on quality assurance and performance improvement.

Here are a few examples of everyday innovations:

• PointClickCare (PCC), a cutting-edge, cloud-based EHR. PCC is a post-acute care focused EHR, tailored to the specific needs of healthcare workers in the skilled nursing space.

• HIE platform utilization is increasing, giving nurses and providers access to more accurate clinical pictures of their residents. This leads to the development of complete and relevant care plans, and ultimately, better outcomes for residents.

• Videoconferencing applications are available for resident telehealth visits as well as staff development and support.
