Despite the fact that electronic health records (EHRs) — also known as electronic medical records (EMRs) and personal health records (PHRs) — have been around for years, they’re still not instated by every long-term care facility. The reason for that? Paper charts have long been accepted as the default method for documenting patient information, which means many of those in long-term care facilities are missing out on access to an efficient, optimal software solution that provides them with a better way to work.
The Benefits of EHR Software for Long-term Care Facilities
If you’ve worked in the long-term care sector for any amount of time, then you know it’s “… a high-stress, low-margin business,” which is why “expediting workflow is critical to optimum patient care and cost-effective treatment” (Baird).
Our software solutions, like Collain Fusion, centralize all your data, offering the following benefits for your staff, your patients, and your organization:

Software solutions should make your life easier, not harder. So whether you’re dealing with the old pen-and-paper method or you’re working with a clunky EHR system that gives you more headaches than help, it’s time to look into a better way to work. Our software solutions are designed to give you everything you need for smoother day-to-day operations.
If you’re tired of struggling with high staff, lost referrals, siloed software, or manual documentation, then it’s time to try something new. While the transition to a new EHR — or an EHR in general! — can be overwhelming and stressful, the end results are worth it. Once your EHR software is implemented, you’ll quickly see why so many long-term care facilities are turning to EHRs to better run their facilities.
