Patient Education Software: Improve Quality of Care through Multimedia and Teach-Back
Doctors and nurses spend a lot of time and energy educating patients and answering the same questions over and over on a daily basis. Even so, patients don’t understand or have not consumed the information in a way that they are able to comprehend.
At 5thPort, we believe in creating a world of empowered patients. We designed a simple yet comprehensive patient education software that enables patients to better understand and follow treatment plans, thereby improving health outcomes. This software also helps healthcare providers and administrators enhance operational efficiencies.
