Information and point-of-care solutions provider Wolters Kluwer Health, US, has introduced the Lippincott's Nursing Advisor App, the first mobile application of the leading online clinical decision support solution for nurses. Available on iTunes and Google Play, the new app makes Lippincott's Nursing Advisor available for the first time for individual clinicians to purchase and use on their smartphones. Previously, the product was only available by group subscription to clinicians in hospitals and other healthcare institutions.
The Lippincott's Nursing Advisor App provides clinicians and students with regularly updated, evidence-based answers on diseases, treatments, signs and symptoms, and diagnostic tests. The information is instantly accessible where it is most needed - at the point-of-care. The app provides the same user-friendly features found in the Web-based institutional product, including bulleted text, helpful tables, icons for frequently used features and full-color art. Content is updated quarterly, ensuring that the most up-to-date clinical information is within fingertip reach for any nurse caring for adult or pediatric patients in an acute- or long-term care setting.
The new app is a "lite" version of the full institutional Web-based product, providing access to the vital clinical information regarding Diseases and Conditions, Signs and Symptoms, Diagnostic Tests and Treatment Programs. Beginning in early 2014, healthcare facilities with a subscription to Lippincott's Nursing Advisor will be able to download the app and gain access to additional content contained in the Web-based product.
Written by nurses for nurses, Lippincott's Nursing Advisor is the leading nurse-centric, answers-at-the-bedside solution designed for online and mobile point-of-care environments. The product includes more than 10,000 collective entries of critical, evidence-based information spanning diseases, treatments, diagnostic tests, drugs, signs & symptoms, nursing care plans, core measures, hospital-acquired conditions, national guidelines and patient education. Using a proprietary synoptic search, the product delivers the appropriate entry within seconds of a nurse's inquiry.
Lippincott's Nursing Advisor is part of Lippincott's Nursing Solutions, a series of evidence-based nursing software products designed to improve patient outcomes, enhance nurse competency, standardize care and promote clinical excellence.
