According to a study released in the Journal of the American Medical Association in October 2002, nurses reported greater job dissatisfaction and emotional exhaustion when they were responsible for more patients than they can safely care for. There’s no panacea, of course, but by lightening the paperwork burden, you can free up more time for patient care.

Standard Register offers a number of solutions to help you automate your processes, reduce paperwork and help diminish opportunities for errors.

Patient LinkUp™ Enterprise (PLUE) is an integrated solution that combines bar code technology and forms automation software that not only streamlines the process of collecting patient data on admission, but it also assures that patient data is available to clinicians on the nursing floor and other units in the hospital. A unique bar code is assigned to each patient and printed on patient wristbands and relevant forms and labels, so patient tests, treatments and even medications can be recorded and tracked with information stored for ready access by the clinicians who need it.

Forms-On-Demand Library enhances Patient LinkUp Enterprise by providing the ability to print or reprint labels, forms and form kits, complete with patient data to any network printer. So your nursing staff has easy access to the most recent forms, assisting in JCAHO compliance. In addition, built-in security features assist in addressing HIPAA requirements.
