The Challenge
The visiting nurses association provides in-home care to elderly, post-operative, and home-bound patients. To improve the quality of care, the association required an efficient method for distributing real-time information to 50+ healthcare workers in the field.

Summary information...Display staff member's daily patient visit schedule

Scalable...Make the application expandable to contain future full patient records and assessment forms

Real time updates...To schedule changes, cancellations, and notifications

The Soleil Solution™
Soleil’s mobile point solution provides nurses with real-time information on their schedule for the day. It allows the nurses to capture patient information while in the field and upload that information to the central repository. Data is exchanged through a mobile connection so that updates may be issued while in the field to get the patients the most timely care available. The application can run on any Java-enabled (JVM) platform. The uncomplicated user interface makes logging patient visits and daily schedule review easy.

The Results
The nurse’s mobile point solution decreases the amount of time nurses spend in the office gathering information for their daily tasks. Access to patient lists for the day via remote connection allows nurses to begin their visits without going into the office. Consequently nurses are able to visit more patients and focus on patient care. Updated schedule eliminates unnecessary visits and reduces downtime due to canceled visits.
