"Before [Backline by DrFirst], I could only communicate with one field provider at a time and it usually took multiple calls to resolve an issue. Today I send one message to everyone involved with a patient’s care and it’s done. I save a good hour a day not playing phone tag, and at the end of my shift, I copy my replacement on any ongoing communications so she is automatically aware of the situation.”
"I love the fact that you can do a 1-on-1 chat with either a patient or a provider."
"Clinical communication is improving in several critical areas as use of [Backline by DrFirst] expands. It’s an intuitive platform – we’ve got things on auto-pilot now.”
"Not only does Diagnotes expedite communication, but it does so securely. This allows us to focus on our patients and not waste valuable patient-care time tracking down our colleagues for information and consults.”
"We integrated our nurse call system with Backline for seamless staff assignments and caregiver notifications."
"I can train anyone to use Diagnotes in six minutes.”
"Coordination of care with Backline is excellent. The whole team is kept informed and up to date on anything happening with patients."
“It has been nice to connect with a therapist inside of the hospital instead of spending 30 minutes tracking them down. I have confirmation that someone has seen my message about the patient.”
"According to the Commonwealth Fund, hospital programs that enable patients to receive acute care at home have proven effective in reducing complications while cutting the cost of care by 30 percent or more."
“If a doctor needs to be notified, pharmacists use Backline, which results in having the right antibiotic administered to the patient sooner.”
“The Diagnotes platform will allow us to communicate as other 21st century businesses do in a compliant and trackable manner.”
"With Backline, we improved communication across departments."
"The [Backline by DrFirst] mobile communication system identifies important transitions of care—including admission, discharge and transfer events—for all Eskenazi Health Center Healthy Aging Brain Center patients and goes into action to immediately alert the assigned care coordinator.”
"Secure texting is just the tip of the iceberg with Diagnotes. Additional components such as EMR integration and clinical documentation will enhance our operations and patient care even further. We couldn’t be more pleased that we chose to partner with Diagnotes in this endeavor.”
“Backline is user-friendly for a variety of user types. It’s one of our programs that people catch on quickly to navigating and it facilitates communication in a secure method with a variety of communication types.”
