The more patients understand about their conditions and care, the more comfortable they are likely to become with their treatment. With the Micromedex CareNotes ® System you can provide your patients with educational documents that are complete, and easy-to-understand about all aspects of their care and health.

CareNotes' concise, customizable materials address patient condition, treatment, laboratory tests, follow-up care, psychosocial issues, continuing health, and the most frequently administered drugs. CareNotes information helps meet The Joint Commission's and OBRA '90 patient education guidelines.   CareNotes will be certified for the Meaningful Use Stage 1 objective to provide patients electronic copies of their discharge instructions by Q3 2011.

CareNotes are available in English, Spanish, and 13 additional languages. With 20% of the U.S. population aged 5 years and older speaking a language other than English at home, it is increasingly important to give your patients the answers they see in their language of choice. Learn more about the new CareNotes languages.

CareNotes can be used as a stand-alone system, as part of the larger Micromedex subscription, or integrated into other systems such as EPIC, MEDITECH, Synamed, and many others.
