LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, USA, April 12, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBRHSC) in Thunder Bay, ON, Canada, is integrating digital, asynchronous video technology into their clinical workflows for surgical patients by using technology developed by the top leader in this space, Health Care Transformation. With digital asynchronous video technology, TBRHSC’s goal is to improve patients’ experience with access to an online video library that reinforces what they will learn from their health care team regarding pre-operative instructions and post-operative follow up. Patients, caregivers and families can stream modern videos from home at their convenience and in their language.

“We have already been using digital tools to engage our surgical patients, for example, SeamlessMD. By enhancing pre-op communications with video, we convey the information in a standardized, engaging way,” says Caroline Fanti, Director of Regional Surgical Services, TBRHSC. “Our team has been extremely excited not only about the additional tools we will have to communicate with our patients but also how it empowers our patients and families by giving them access to the information they need, at their fingertips.”

Thunder Bay has already been receiving positive feedback about the videos from their patients, including 97%+ conveying they find the videos helpful. These videos also include multilingual captions to serve the diverse Canadian population.

“Thunder Bay in Ontario, Canada, is one of the organizations leading the way towards the future of care delivery.” says Meghan Nechrebecki, Founder and CEO at Health Care Transformation. “To rely on verbal and written pre-op education is inefficient for nurses and ineffective for patients. Async video allows patients to re-watch the information as often as needed with their partners and other loved ones who play an important role in their care.”

Through the async video analytics, TBRHSC is already tracking improvement in both nurse and patient experience and compliance.
