Electronic Medical Records: A Nursing Perspective treihing For all caregivers I recommend taking a look at MicroBloggingMD. This solution is a secure messaging system send critical patient information to the caregivers smartphone REGARDLESS of make or manufacturer. There is no need to download a different application for a particular phone.
The best part of MicroBloggingMD is that once you receive a critical or clinical value, you can sign off on it right from your phone and your current clinical system will automatically be updated. Imagine signing off on Labs, Radiology Reports, Approving Transcription or even signing Progress Notes from your phone or iPad.
