Videoconferencing improved coordinated care planning by reducing session times and increasing staff participation. This technology enhanced documentation quality and facilitated better post-discharge care, proving beneficial despite minor technical issues.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Telemedicine
  • Interprofessional Collaboration

Background:

  • Coordinated care planning is crucial for effective patient transitions between healthcare facilities.
  • Geographical distance between university hospitals and local health centers can impede collaborative care planning.
  • Optimizing information transfer and participation in care planning is essential for patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of videoconferencing in coordinated care planning compared to face-to-face meetings.
  • To assess the impact of videoconferencing on session duration, staff participation, and documentation quality.
  • To determine the influence of videoconferencing on the involvement of next of kin in care planning.

Main Methods:

  • A comparative study involving videoconferencing and face-to-face conferencing for coordinated care planning sessions.

  • Data collection over a seven-month period, including 10 videoconferencing and 7 face-to-face sessions.
  • Interviews with next of kin to gather feedback on their involvement and influence.

    • Main Results:

    • Videoconferencing reduced average care-planning session time from 60 to 45 minutes.
    • Increased participation from diverse professional categories was observed with videoconferencing.
    • Enhanced documentation quality and positive feedback from next of kin regarding their influence were noted.

    Conclusions:

    • Videoconferencing is a valuable tool for efficient and effective coordinated care planning.
    • The technology offers significant time savings and improves the quality of care documentation.
    • Videoconferencing facilitates broader professional engagement and supports patient-centered care planning.
