Wolters Kluwer Health, a global provider of trusted clinical technology and evidence-based solutions, has announced that Steward Health Care has selected Wolters Kluwer as the trusted source for a range of technology solutions that deliver the latest evidence and clinical surveillance within natural workflows that engage doctors, nurses, allied health professionals as well as patients. The collaboration is part of Steward's strategy to reduce variability in care across its large integrated care network that is projected to care for three million lives in 2018.
As the largest private, for-profit hospital operator in the United States, Steward Health Care is a physician-led healthcare services organisation based in Dallas, Texas. Steward operates 38 community hospitals with 7,300 beds in the United States and in Malta.
Turning to Wolters Kluwer Health, Steward is equipping nursing and medical staff with resources to increase quality and improve outcomes. Nurses are empowered for point of care decision-making, continuing education and faster staff on-boarding with Lippincott Procedures, Advisor, Professional Development Collection, and Blended Learning. Clinicians can research questions in over 100 million journals, texts, books and multimedia using Ovid. In the age of antibiotic-resistant superbugs, Steward's infection prevention teams are using Sentri7 throughout the health system to detect infections sooner and treat patients more effectively. These resources complement Steward's long-time reliance on UpToDate, the evidence-based clinical decision support system from Wolters Kluwer Health that is trusted by clinicians around the world to make the best decisions for patient care.
