Trualta Adds PointClickCare’s EHR Platform to Expanding Suite of Technology Integrations
Facilities nationwide can opt in to offer family caregiver support
Trualta, a leading family caregiver education and support platform, and PointClickCare, a cloud-based healthcare platform for long-term and post-acute care (LTPAC) providers, have partnered to support family caregivers.
As part of a growing list of technology integrations, Trualta will now be offered as an integrated partner solution to PointClickCare customers through PointClickCare’s Marketplace. Care facilities that sign up will provide Trualta as a free resource to families upon discharge.
“We are so excited that more family caregivers will be able to receive proper education and support as their loved ones transition home from care facilities,” said Jonathan Davis, Trualta CEO. “We know that supporting families through discharge improves provider satisfaction rates and reduces hospital readmissions.”
Before discharge, families with access to Trualta will be invited to log in for caregiving resources, which will also be available to them once they return home. Trualta’s articles, videos, and modules cover a variety of care topics including preparing for discharge, transitioning from hospital to home, and life after discharge. Trualta also offers virtual support groups that enable caregivers to ask questions and share their experiences.
“In addition to empowering caregivers as integral members of the care team, Trualta’s integration with PointClickCare can help facilities optimize their workflows and reduce staff burden by involving caregivers before discharge,” said Davis.
According to a recent study of Trualta caregivers, 30 days of Trualta use can decrease annual unexpected hospital visits among care recipients by 20 percent.
