Memorial Hermann Healthcare System has the busiest trauma center in the country, which depends on the latest technology to streamline its services. With thousands of doctors, nurses, and administrators, how do they all deliver better patient care?
You guessed it, with their iPhone!!!
Since the iPhone has built in support for Microsoft Exchange, it works perfectly with Memorial Hermann’s technological infrastructure. With the ability to remotely wipe and put passcode protection on the iPhone, keeps patients’ records secure and confidential.
In an interview with David Bradshaw, Memorial Hermann’s Chief Information, Planning and Marketing Officer, he states that “Health care is a real-time business. We need anywhere, anytime computing, and the iPhone is the best platform for the applications we’re choosing.”
With Outlook on the iPhone, accepting meetings, looking at email and attachments, downloading spreadsheets is all integrated, like having the client on the iPhone.
With hundreds of medical apps accessible, the iPhone becomes a pocket reference for everything from diagnostic tools to anatomical charts. This also allows clinicians the freedom to create their own workflow applications to streamline their day.
One of the most popular medical apps is AirStrip OB, which enables obstetricians to monitor the different stages of labor even when they’re not patient-side. Doctors can get real time data at the touch of a button with the iPhone. Like many other medical apps, Airstrip OB has a secure connection to a HIPAA compliant authentication, which many mobile devices can’t offer.
With secure remote access to patients and other clinical data, the iPhone is making its way in hospitals as a must have device. If you are in the medical field, and own an iPhone, you should see what apps are available.
Here are a few:
Lexi-Complete: Detailed information on drugs, drug interactions, diagnosis, disease management, patient education, and more.
The Bantam Medical Dictionary: Fifth edition of the Bantam Medical Dictionary
The Muscle System Pro: basic to advanced levels of muscles and muscle groups
Some of you blog owners may have tried or are considering the wordpress app for your iPhone. It is a very basic blogging app that allows you to add posts, pages, and approve comments from anywhere. This can be very convenient for bloggers on the go, but the spelling handycapped blogger will really miss the spell check function.
The one feature I like best is the ability to approve comments where ever you are. I will get an email about new comments and now all I have to do is log on to the app to approve.
Unless you are really proficient with typing on the iPhone, I wouldn’t suggest this app for any long posts.
On the topic of blogging, if you own a blog you should check out Bloggers Payback Pro
