Discharge 1-2-3 can be used by either physicians or nurses to complete the entire discharge.  As a matter of fact, we have specific pathways for each with their own capabilities in an amazing system that will even allow them to work together as a team.  Physicians can use the system not only to create instructions but also to complete expertly typewritten prescriptions that reduce the chance of medical errors due to illegible handwriting as well as call backs from pharmacies. Physicians can also create customizations with their own preferences.

Nurses can use the system to access individual physician's preferred discharge protocols or to select instructions from the vast main library of instructions.  Nursing use is very configurable for your workflow. A nurse can use the system alone, or as a team with the physicians working in the department to include medication instructions for their prescriptions.

No matter who uses the system at your facility - physicians or nurses, it will increase the speed and quality of discharge beyond any other system available.

Benefits for Physicians - Why Physicians Prefer Discharge 1-2-3

The following characterizes the most common comments from physicians:

"The thing I like most about Discharge 1-2-3 is the speed. When you have a crowded ED, you need to go fast and I don't want to type. Discharge 1-2-3 takes that all away - and most importantly, I can use my own preferences and make almost any changes I need on-the-fly.  I also just like the way it's designed. It's very well thought out. I can even start a discharge on downtime between patients, and finish it later from a different computer when the patient is ready to go or when I get back those confirmatory labs."

For physicians, Discharge 1-2-3 provides a fast and easy way to create instructions and typewritten prescriptions that cater to individualized needs. It was designed by physicians for physicians so we have counted every click in order to make it easy, physician-friendly, and intuitive.

Discharge 1-2-3 software can be customized for particular practice preferences like no other system available. This reduces time on every future use and even if you need to change something, our unique point and click format lets you make the changes you need fast without ever touching the keyboard.

The text output from Discharge 1-2-3 is well thought out, clear, concise and allows you to provide more complete, individualized patient instructions than you could ever practically create by hand without tremendous compromises on your own time.

You will also appreciate the medical-legal protection and medical error reduction you will have with typewritten prescriptions and instructions. Pharmacists will be able to read your prescriptions. Patients can read and sign their instructions, and the institution can retain a copy on file with their records.

Benefits for Nurses - Why Nurses Prefer Discharge 1-2-3

It's easy, fast, and you can pull either your physician's preferred versions or from an extremely comprehensive library Easy to learn and use No more trying to read bad handwriting Pull specific physician's versions of instructions Spend more time with patients and care Provides clinician-specific output

The following characterizes the most common nursing comments:

"The Discharge 1-2-3 system's instructions are just better for the patient. They can read them, they are complete, and we can create them specific to the individual doctors and patients without any extra time or typing. If the physicians use it, they can create their own prescriptions and the system automatically creates the medication instructions they need. For nursing use, it is very easy and fast.  Additionally, all the discharges are saved so when the patient comes back for a lost excuse, we can pull it up and print it again."

Discharge 1-2-3 has separate pathways for nurses and physicians. This allows nurses to do many things such as access an individual physician's preferred instruction sets, select or customize their own patient instructions form the main library, and work with physicians as a team to complete the discharge process.

The nursing pathway is very configurable with levels of security that allow you to set up exactly how you would like your workflow with respect to the physician's prescribing activities - but still allow access and creation of discharge and medication instructions for the patient.

If the patient should return for a lost work-slip, or call with questions on the instructions they were given, their discharge documents can be retrieved. All discharges are saved in a database for easy retrieval. In a multi-user setting, all information can be accessed from any workstation on the network using the Discharge 1-2-3 server.
