FEATURES OF INTERACTIVE TVs FOR PATIENTS AND RESIDENTS

Relaxation App

It can be hard to relax in a hospital setting. This is true not only for patients, but for their visitors as well. These interactive TVs offer relaxation videos that will help make the patient’s hospital stay less stressful and allow for a better night’s sleep.

Music Apps

Another way to relax is with music. Many also believe that music has the power to heal. Thus, by using music apps, everyone can feel more relaxed, including the providers who enter the room with the patient. There are many options to choose from.

Patient Education App

Sometimes the condition and/or the treatment you are facing can be complicated. It can be difficult to explain and understand. Imagine that you are a staff member, and you have to explain the same diagnosis to every family member and friend that has a question. While most staff are happy to do so, this can take away from patient care. With the patient education app, prescribed educational videos can be sent to the patient’s TV so that everyone is on the same page.

Favorite TV Shows

Of course, one of the best benefits of interactive TVs is the fact that they are a TV. Patients can watch shows on cable and keep up with their favorite sports team, as well as have access to live streaming services, such as Netflix.

Messaging App

The messaging app helps ensure your patients and residents receive all of the information they need. You can send out messages and the TV will display them, whether or not it is on. Reminders to patients can be sent, such as prescription reminders, and patients can send their providers messages as well.

Service Request App

Service request app helps to streamline requests from the patient for their care and needs. For example, the patient will be able to view the menus and place their meal orders. Their requests can be sent directly to the fulfillment provider, and the healthcare facility can customize the services available to meet their particular needs.

RX Search App

The RX search app helps patients identify pills and capsules quickly. This app uses pictures to help inform the patient of their medications. It also offers educational videos on the proper dosage to take, possible side effects, and other pertinent warnings. This helps with patient safety and care and helps reduce emergency room visits.
