Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services enhance patient safety and care through continuous, remote monitoring. Designed to support hospitals facing staffing challenges and to improve patient outcomes, our virtual sitter services leverage advanced telehealth technology to provide constant observation of patients at risk of falls, self-harm, or other safety concerns.

Virtual sitters utilize high-resolution video and audio technology to monitor patients from a centralized location. This approach allows trained technicians to observe multiple patients simultaneously, providing real-time alerts to on-site nursing staff when immediate intervention is necessary. By reducing the need for in-person sitters, hospitals can optimize their resources and ensure that their staff is utilized efficiently.

The primary benefits of Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services include enhanced patient safety, reduced staffing costs, and improved workflow efficiency. Virtual sitters can promptly identify and respond to potential safety issues, ensuring that patients receive timely and appropriate care. This proactive approach helps to prevent falls, reduce incidents of self-harm, and mitigate other safety risks, leading to better patient outcomes and higher satisfaction rates.

Additionally, virtual sitters play a crucial role in supporting bedside nurses by handling routine monitoring tasks, allowing on-site staff to focus on more critical aspects of patient care. This collaboration fosters a safer, more efficient care environment and helps to alleviate the workload of overburdened nursing teams.

Equum Medical's Virtual Sitter Services offer a scalable, cost-effective solution to address the growing demands of modern healthcare. By integrating virtual sitters into their care models, hospitals can enhance patient safety, optimize staffing, and improve the overall quality of care provided to patients.

Below are some representative examples:

• Increase Patient Loyalty & Market Share - 93% of GetWell Loop patients are extremely likely to recommend their physicians.

• Extensive Content Library of 300+ clinically validated care plans - One of the greatest challenges in digital engagement is determining what information to send a patient, when to send it, and in what format it should be received to ensure comprehension and drive compliance. 

Compared to other solutions where clients have to build care plans or interactions from scratch, Get Well Loop provides an evidence-based library of 300+ highly personalized digital care plans that were designed to drive engagement and outcomes. A care plan consists of education, reminders, assessments, and tasks broken down into daily bite sized chunks and delivered to the patient automatically over a schedule of weeks or months. Our library includes episodic specific procedural and acute-on-chronic care plans as well as general discharge care plans. Each care plan is written in a highly empathetic way and serves as a continuous virtual presence with patients on their roads to recovery. GetWell Loop anticipates commonly asked questions and answers them through insightful instruction, reducing calls and frustrating hold times for patients.

Content Customization

GetWell Loop content can be adjusted to accommodate varying physician practice patterns or preferences. We work with organizations to determine appropriate levels of standardization and use episodic specific surveys to gather information from the physicians on their practice patterns. That data is then used in combination with current discharge instructions to identify variance and support you in making decisions on specific care plan customizations. At the enterprise level, our content/care pathways can be customized by facility, practice, care setting, and physician. The care plans are further customized automatically for each patient using patient’s medical history. GetWell Loop enables communication in a scalable and engaging way without compromising the voice of the provider.

Interoperability

Extensive integration experience

Get Well has years of experience integrating with all major HIT systems that reduces implementation time and burden for hospital IS departments. Our deep integration expertise ensures that our technology is fully embedded and communicating with your core health IT platforms to pull critical information, document information, and maintain current workflows.

IDeep integration with the EHR

GetWell Loop recognizes physicians and practice staff have large panels of patients to treat with limited time. Providing integration into a longitudinal patient record means clinical decisions and care plan adjustments can be made without having to manage several inboxes or dashboards. GetWell Loop has developed a clinician SMART app for Epic and Cerner which allows clinicians to access the Get Well Loop clinician dashboard and communication tools from directly within Epic or Cerner.

Additionally, GetWell Loop provides the option for portal integration allowing patients to access to Loop within EHR or custom patient portal, without need for additional login.

Configurability

It is important to meet organizations where they are with resources, previous technology investments, and workflow, so our team has built the tool in a way that allows for customization throughout. There are configurability options related to, integration, content, branding, triage methodology, bidirectional communication, alerting, and workflow. For each organization that we partner with, our goal is to understand your current resources and how we can best fit in.
