HIPAA-Compliant Text Solution Accessible On Any Device
How do you stay on top of your patients when you’re not always there? This is a central challenge to any physician in long term adult care—and one that Bountiful Utah’s South Davis Community Hospital (SDCH) has been meeting since 1977. Along with a large nursing staff, its eight doctors look after roughly 100 patients, providing everything from orthopedic rehabilitation to long term acute care. The facility has won numerous awards for its work, including an American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) Silver Award for outstanding performance in healthcare.
Challenges
While SDCH has always excelled in providing its services, its mission comes with a variety of built-in challenges.

They rely on daily contact with nurses for updates on their patients, so rapid, secure communication is essential.
