St. Elizabeth’s Hospital Implements PatientTrak Software

FRANKLIN, Wis. - May 1, 2015 - PRLog -- St. Elizabeth’s Hospital is implementing several PatientTrak solutions including tracking and text messaging to improve their staff and patient communications as well as their overall patient experience.

Text messaging has proven to improve patient and family satisfaction as it provides real-time updates on patient status during complex and lengthy surgical procedures.  Providing patient status updates to family members and loved ones keeps them informed and lowers anxiety.  PatientTrak custom reporting is also being used to improve staff efficiency while reducing patient wait times.

PatientTrak President, James W. Hermann, states “we are excited to provide our communication platform to enable the staff keep family members informed with patient status messages at St. Elizabeth’s.  This system is designed to improve their patient throughput and satisfaction significantly.”
