Surgery Messages
Having a loved one in the hospital can be an incredibly nerve-racking experience, especially if they are there for a surgery appointment. The risk of complication from surgery only adds to emotional instability in patients and their loved ones, so it is important to keep all parties well-informed of everything that is taking place before, during, and after the surgery. In a time period as technologically advanced as the one we currently live in, it is easier than ever to successfully accomplish this task and increase patient communication.
One of the easiest ways to do so is through surgery messages sent out during each phase of the patient’s hospital stay. MyCareText is a great example of an application designed specifically for this task. Hospital staff can use the application to send out messages to the patient’s loved ones, keeping everyone up to date throughout the surgical process. These updates on the status of the patient are sent out via the MyCareText web application and are received through text messages on a mobile device. Surgery messages allow the patient’s loved ones to stay informed on their current situation whether they are there in the hospital waiting room or supporting from another location.
