Concise, clear, easily understood discharge instructions will allow the nurses and physicians to feel confident that their patients are leaving their department with the information they want them to have.

 

ExitCare Company Vision

ExitCare, LLC is a privately held company which was formed in 1996 (as ExitCare) to create a computerized medical information system called ExitCare®. It was developed specifically for use in emergency departments, urgent care settings, other hospital departments, and private practice clinics.

Our easily understood discharge instructions will not only facilitate patient care through complete and thorough understanding of their illness, but also ultimately provide a more comprehensive communication between physicians, nurses and patients. Concise, clear, easily understood discharge instructions will allow the nurses and physicians to feel confident that their patients are leaving their department with the information they want them to have. They will know that the information patients have upon discharge from their department will leave nothing to chance. They can be confident that a mother will not return to the emergency room with a child in shock, after being seen three days earlier for diarrhea, stating, "I didn't know I should be concerned if vomiting started."

This should not only promote patient care but also expedite it. In this litigious society in which we live, we also feel that this is added insurance against those eventualities. Along with the better understanding, the attractiveness and completeness of our discharge instructions will encourage the patient to not only read them but to hold onto them until the illness is over.

ExitMeds™ allows fast, secure prescription writing that is always legible to all who view it - the doctor, patient, and pharmacist. Now also includes Patient Medication Reconciliation, a Joint Commission requirement, as well as an option for a printable Patient Medication Administration schedule checklist for patient use. Drug Interaction Checking is another option. And, if desired, it produces for the patient comprehensive, printed drug information sheets connected to prescriptions administered or written.

ExitCare® has been created as an easy point-and-click system so that nearly anyone, even those not familiar with computers, can within minutes understand how to print the instructions they desire.

As an added benefit to your medical facility, ExitCare provides a superb marketing benefit, giving you an advantage over your competitors. Your commitment to cutting edge medical information for your patients will be clearly and attractively presented and well received.
