Patients often require home health care services, which can be daunting to set up within one’s home. Not only do you need to worry about the care being provided, there are considerations regarding licensure, as well as honesty and reliability of the caretakers. Sadly there are companies out there set up to conduct fraudulent activities within the homes of their patients, which is one reason that many people feel home health care should be regulated better.

Assignment Details:

You are an office manager for a surgical clinic, and many of your patients are referred to home health programs. To assist your patients, create an educational handout with checklist helping them to determine what they should look for in a home healthcare agency. Make sure you include data and research to help show the patients the needs for reliable and highly trained home healthcare workers. Your handout should include both text as well as visual aids, such as graphs and pictures.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Home healthcare system

Introduction

The patient data collection (Check-in) system is used for collecting the data for different systems of care. The doctors are assigned to different areas of care such as D1, D2 and D3. Each doctor will have their own computer system which contains all the check-in data from the patients they see during their shift. We also have case files with 4 patients of different age groups, medical history and types of illness kept securely on our cloud database so that we can generate reports at any time without having to log into each individual computer system again.

1. Patient Data Collection (Check-in)

When you visit a doctor’s office, they will ask you to fill out a form which includes your name and address. The nurse or technician who takes care of you in the waiting room will also ask questions about your health history and symptoms. This information is stored on a computer system called “patient data collection.”

The patient data collection system is used by nurses and technicians to record basic information about patients who come into their care through an electronic medical record (EMR). The EMR contains all pertinent medical records for each patient at one time, so it’s easy for doctors or nurses to access this information when needed without having to look at one document after another over time.

2. Check-in Doctor

Check-in Doctor

The check-in doctor is the first person to see the patient and is responsible for collecting all of their data. The check-in doctor is also responsible for categorizing the patient’s race, gender and other demographics. They will enter this information into a database so that it can be accessed by other healthcare professionals whenever they need it.

3. Doctors (D1, D2 and D3) for different systems/areas of care

When you have a healthcare team, you also need doctors. Doctors are responsible for providing care and treatment for patients.

Doctors can be found in different places—the hospital, the emergency room (ER), or a clinic.

4. Computer system for D1, D2 and D3

The computer system must be capable of storing and analysing large amounts of data. It must also be able to communicate with other systems, such as the doctor’s office and internet.

The computer system should have a high speed processor (Intel Core i5 or higher), 8GB RAM, 2x 1TB hard drives and an optical drive for installation media such as Windows 7 or 10 64-bit edition. You can also use a USB 3 port if you have one available on your PC since this will allow faster transfers between your desktop and laptop/tablet than using USB 2 ports which are slower than their counterparts because they require more power consumption from both devices involved in the transmission process instead of just one device at a time like USB 2 does!

5. Case files for patient P1, P2, P3 and P4 with 4 patients of different age groups, medical history and types of illness

• Case files are the records of patients, which contain all the information about them. They help in keeping track of a patient’s medical history and diagnosis, treatment and progress over time.

• Case files should be easily accessible by doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff who need to access them at any time or place. They can also be used as references for future reference by other healthcare providers who may want to refer back to them again during their work with a specific patient

6. System to store all the check-in data from all patients

The next step is to store the patient check-in data in a secure location. This has to be done by a company that has expertise in this field, because it involves storing large amounts of sensitive information on their servers.

The system should be accessible from any location and there should be no limits on how often you can access it or what type of devices you can use to access it (for example, an iPhone or iPad).

7. Reports generated from the check-in data with graphs to analyze and alert doctor

• Reports generated from the check-in data with graphs to analyze and alert doctor

Reports should be generated for all patients, regardless of their condition or whether or not they have been seen by a nurse during their visit. The reports will contain information on the patient’s demographics, medical history and any other relevant data that could be used to improve care delivery.

None

• None.

Conclusion

A home healthcare system can be used to provide the best care for patients, with proper treatment and medication. The check-in doctor will verify the medical history of each patient, review all reports received by doctors in their respective systems, then make an informed decision based on this data. This way, quality healthcare can be provided to everyone who needs it
