Tina Sadarangani, PhD, RN, ANP-BC, GNP-BC, 2020 IMPACT Career Development Awardee and 2021-2022 IMPACT Faculty Scholar, and colleagues published an article on the clinical summary template within CareMOBI, a mobile application designed to facilitate information exchange between primary care providers (PCPs) and adult day centers (ADCs). The investigators found that PCP’s viewed the template as a concise and actionable record. Ultimately, the summary template could potentially save PCP’s time in locating and analyzing historical data to enable rapid patient assessment and prompt more ready and informed action.
Abstract
CareMOBI (Mhealth for Organizations to Bolster Interconnectedness) is a mobile application designed to facilitate information exchange between primary care providers (PCPs) and adult day centers (ADCs). A key function of CareMOBI is to synthesize information collected outside of the provider’s office (ie,: in the ADC or at home) and distill the most relevant data points into an exportable clinical summary that can help inform clinical decision making by the PCP with information from outside providers who are not formally embedded within health systems. In this study, we used a qualitative approach to understand the acceptability and utility of the clinical summary template within CareMOBI.
