Product Capabilities

Our content is checked by physicians, edited by the on-screen physician and signed off by our chief clinical advisor. The tone is non-prescriptive, for any references to medicine findings, we flag internally for an annual review to re-shoot where appropriate.

We supply in various formats (portrait, landscape), with different language dubs, subtitles, we can supply transcripts - many episodes contain visual animations. Interface is via Cloudinary, or stitched into what the existing education content tool uses.

The content architecture is designed for a provider to display content hyper-relevant to the user (language preference, orientation, gender, the condition, stage of condition)

We aim for an 8th grade reading age before a script is approved for production. It is designed to support shared decision-making & educate patients of all demographic ranges.

A GraphQL API with content hosted on Cloudinary can display content to any platform without restriction or much development work. We can also supply raw file formats to upload into existing content tools, or patient engagement products.

pCare delivers patient education from the leading content providers (Krames, Healthwise, WedMD, Health Nuts, Elsevier) whose content is kept up to date and reviewed.

With ingeterations in place, pCare tracks when content is accessed, completed, along with answere to learning verification questions - all of which can be ported back to an EHR via results message. Additionally, all de-identified transaction data is saved in our system for reporting and can be made available back to clients via data exports.

Patients can interact with the pCare system via a pillow speaker, tablet, or personal device paired to our system. On Screen Displays alert the patient to view education in preparation for discharge as well as present surveys patients complete in order to give staff a pulse check on an admission. Patients can further interact with the system by answering learning verification questions, placing service quests, ordering meds to beds, ordering meals, and managing room temperature and lighting controls.

pCare CareFlows are triggered by both EHR data and interactions with our system to guide the patient during an admission. Available CareFlows include Discharge Planning, Falls Prevention, Infection Control, and Pain Management.

Navigating the system is as easy as using a television remote and it can be done via a person device. The content presented is from validated patient education publishers whose content is not only scientifically accurate but created in accordance with health literacy design priciples. In addition to providing content in multiple languages, our VideoConnect telepresence solution include Language Connect which facilitates 1-click access to video translation services.

pCare intergrates with leading EHR systems which enables prescription and documentation of education transactions. CareFlows further automate the process by dosing information over the duration of an admission.

pCare integrates with leading EHRs including Epic, Oracle Health (Cerner), Meditech, and Altera (Allscripts)

Use Cases

Description:

Problem: Healthcare providers speak with us when existing ways to improve patient outcomes, education and engagement aren't performing. The overall objectives are:

  • Reduce readmission rates for mild to moderate patients with chronic diseases
  • Increase ennrolment or engagement with patient populations
  • Reduce no-show rate inbetween recurring scheduled visits for certain care types
  • Reduce mental health comorbidities surrounding chronic conditions
  • Improve health literacy levels
  • Reducing nonaderance

Solution: A wide range of provider organzations adopt our platform, which offers a comprehensive library of patient education materials on managing chronic conditions, including interactive video, bitesize videos, built specifically on a nano-learning model for the purpose of equity, low literacy level and information retention.

A provider licenses our platform and either integrates it into their pre-existing patient education program, directly surfaces it via a patient portal, delivers via SMS or provides access via a whitelabel platform

Patients receive access to high-quality educational resources that help them better understand their condition and how to manage it. This leads to improved patient engagement and adherence to treatment plans.

Overall, our patient education platform provides healthcare providers with a valuable tool to improve patient outcomes, engagement and satisfaction while also demonstrating success in meeting performance metrics. We're mostly attractive to risk-bearing entities, as we tie projects to tangible metrics that matter.
