Leading the way in delivering digital healthcare technologies for clinicians and patients, MedWand Solutions, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has recently become a PointClickCare Marketplace Program Partner and completed a technical integration that will allow nurses and providers to access MedWand's comprehensive VirtualCare telemedicine platform using their PointClickCare credentials, increasing staffing efficiency, empowering providers, and improving access to quality healthcare.
"As nursing facilities face workforce shortages, compressed margins, burnout, and inflationary impact, leveraging proven technology has become essential," shared Robert Rose, MedWand CEO and President. "Our team has sought to innovate and push the envelope on providing clinical care through MedWand's ecosystem. With this next-level system integration, a nurse can examine a patient with MedWand and instantly see updates in their EHR. And, if required, may connect with a supervising clinician instantly for an interactive consultation with just a click of a button."
MedWand's technical integration with the PointClickCare platform allows nursing assistants using the handheld MedWand device to cooperatively evaluate patients with a physician via real-time, clinically accurate examinations, from any location in the country. The integration supports single password log-in, patient search from resident lists, and export of all captured vital data and clinical notes back to PointClickCare for inclusion in the patient's electronic health record.
MedWand provides comprehensive clinical care solutions to nurses and providers across the healthcare ecosystem to improve care decision-making and enhance operational efficiency. A clinically accurate multi-sensor device, MedWand contains a non-contact thermometer, digital stethoscope, pulse oximeter, ECG*, and UHD camera, powered by a supplied 10" Android OS tablet and VirtualCare software. External sensors such as blood pressure, blood sugar level, weight, height, pain, and spirometry, can be added to an exam report via Bluetooth wireless or manual entry, depending on the specific sensor type.
"The PointClickCare Marketplace offers the widest range of integrated solutions available to the market," says Chris Beekman, Director of Marketplace, PointClickCare. "Our partnership with MedWand, and other Marketplace partners, is further testament to our continually growing partner network and ecosystem, and the wealth of possibilities it provides our customers to extend their technology capabilities."
MedWand and its associated VirtualCare telemedicine platform were created by a team of physicians and medical device engineers to enhance the quality and accessibility of digital healthcare services for clinicians and patients, regardless of physical location. The company offers the MedWand device and VirtualCare software for multiple applications that include hospitals, field clinics, nursing homes, schools, and workplaces.
