Electronic documentation of care information that enables care staff and relatives to centrally manage and access relevant data more quickly.
The Digital care file is an electronic documentation system that records all relevant information on a person’s need for care and support centrally and digitally. It contains data on health status, care measures, medication administration, therapies and medical instructions.
Digital recording makes care processes more transparent and efficient. Nursing staff, doctors and relatives can access the information in real time, which facilitates communication and coordination in day-to-day care. The digital care record helps to avoid care errors, take individual needs into account more effectively and improve the quality of care.
Digital care files are increasingly being used in home care and care facilities in particular to make everyday care easier and ensure seamless documentation.
