3 August 2018 - - US-based mobile clinical communication and workflow solutions provider PatientSafe Solutions has integrated with Epic, the company said.

The PatientTouch app is now available in the Epic App Orchard, a platform where developers can access Epic's application programming interfaces and post their app for Epic community members to evaluate and consider.

As an App Orchard contributor, PatientSafe Solutions will use Epic's APIs to ensure tight integration and smooth interoperability for its customers.

The PatientTouch app aggregates and synthesizes patient and care team data from the core EMR and ancillary systems to coordinate care team collaboration and ensure timely intervention for sepsis response, anti-microbial stewardship management, falls prevention, and more.

PatientSafe Solutions (San Diego, California) obsesses over the experience of care to help care teams communicate and work together reliably and efficiently.

PatientSafe delivers measurable safety and quality improvements through a mobile platform that extends an organisation's EHR, clinical, and communication infrastructure and fits seamlessly into care team workflows.

The company's context-driven PatientTouch platform unifies communication with workflow by consolidating text, talk, alerts, EMR data, clinical workflows and customizable care interventions, all in one mobile app, on one device.

For more than a decade, PatientTouch has helped clinicians both in and outside the hospital streamline care delivery, increase quality, and lower costs.
