Combining powerful technology and ongoing community support to unburden senior care facilities of non-clinical tasks
CHARLOTTE, N.C., March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- InteliChart, the award-winning leader in patient engagement solutions, today announced a unique partnership with Senior Care Support Services (SCSS), a specialist in administrative support for long-term care facilities. The alliance between InteliChart and SCSS is poised to set a new standard in organizational support and family engagement in the long-term care industry.
This collaboration is aimed at addressing the ongoing labor crisis in senior care. InteliChart's Family Portal is designed to streamline facility-family communication workflows, significantly reducing the labor-intensive task of managing inbound calls and enhancing regulatory compliance through its audit trail capabilities. By combining Family Portal with SCSS's expertise, organizations can anticipate a decrease in inbound phone calls from family members, less time spent on follow-up tasks, and better star ratings, all contributing to enhanced overall facility management.
"A partnership with SCSS represents a major step forward in our mission to transform communication within long-term care facilities," said Gary Hamilton, CEO of InteliChart. "Combining Family Portal with SCSS's services will further enhance its impact, helping facilities better manage workflows that are traditionally labor-intensive and impact work-life balance for staff. It presents a solution for organizations that want to avoid tasks that lead to worker burnout so staff can focus on care."
SCSS, recognized for its expertise in alleviating non-clinical administrative burdens for nursing teams, will incorporate InteliChart's Family Portal into its service offerings. This collaboration ensures seamless utilization of InteliChart's solution without the need to oversee implementation or ongoing family communication management. With SCSS providing white-glove implementation, client communications, and ongoing monitoring of family messaging, staff members are empowered with more time to focus on care-related tasks. Additionally, facilities can leverage SCSS's supplementary services including new resident opportunity development, direct community support, and nursing task delegation for additional workload relief.
Frances Carroll, principal and founder of SCSS, commented, "Our collaboration with InteliChart demonstrates our mission of reallocating nursing resources, increasing employee satisfaction, and enhancing resident and family satisfaction within long-term care facilities. It's a prime example of how we align specialized talent, tools, and proven methodologies to serve the senior care industry."
In an era marked by staffing challenges and the pervasive issue of burnout in the long-term care facilities, the partnership between InteliChart and SCSS emerges as a beacon of hope and innovation. With a shared commitment to streamlining communication and administrative processes, this alliance sets the stage for a new era of efficiency, empowerment, and excellence in support for senior care professionals.
