Hospital-Based Care Plan Library. Our hospital-based care plans proactively guide patients through a curriculum of education, activities, and comprehension questions designed to drive patients to the next best step. Our care plan library is highly effective at engaging patients across prescribed interventions and is focused around high-impact areas (e.g., Essential Education, Personalized Education, Experience Management, Transitions of Care). Our hospital-based care plan library helps hospitals increase activation, improve transitions of care, and support chronic disease management.

Key Features

Manage education right within Cerner
While viewing a patient’s chart, clinicians can click the embedded “GetWell Inpatient” tab to prescribe, manage, and track assigned education.

Deliver the right education at the right time
Once education is prescribed, patients receive a prompt letting them know they have new video education. Patients who opt to dismiss the prompt will be regularly reminded until education is complete. Patients receive these prompts on the TV, enterprise iPads, or on their own mobile device, depending upon the modalities on which the health system has decided to deploy GetWell Inpatient.

Gain a pulse on whole-family engagement
Get a better sense for who is watching prescribed education. By understanding who is engaging with educational content, clinical staff can better identify opportunities for teach-back. Completed education is also automatically documented in Cerner.

Capture real-time comprehension assessments
Video education can be paired with interactive comprehension questions to document patient and family understanding of the education viewed. Comprehension assessments are automatically documented and accessible for clinical staff to review within Cerner.

Guiding patients to the best next step
After completing comprehension questions, patients are automatically presented with their next education video, which automatically launches after 60 seconds. A handful of common actions populate if patients would like to complete education at a later time. Patients are regularly reminded of outstanding education until completion.
