"This collaboration enhances hospitals’ ability to gain family input into the post-hospital plan and may alleviate some of the stress of making major decisions under pressure by allowing patients and families to do some research on their own. Additionally, from a staff perspective, we expect this will be a key timesaver as well as patient satisfaction tool." David Schofield, Skylight Healthcare Systems, President and CEO.
