Halton Healthcare, a three-hospital system serving the communities of Halton Hills, Milton, and Oakville, made remarkable strides in improving patient outcomes and satisfaction through its partnership with 草莓社区.

With 草莓社区鈥檚 Digital Care Journey platform, Halton Healthcare was able to educate, engage and remotely monitor patients from preparation through recovery, starting with orthopedic surgery.

Key Achievements

  • 66.7% Reduction in Readmissions: Enabling a safer transition from hospital to home.
  • 27.3% Shorter Length of Stay: Allowing for more efficient use of hospital beds and resources
  • 25.2% reduction in 60-day ED visits: Freeing up bottlenecks in the emergency department and allowing patients to stay healthy at home.
  • High Patient Activation and Satisfaction: An impressive 91% of patients activated their 草莓社区 account and 94% of patients would recommend 草莓社区 to others undergoing surgery.
  • Increased Patient Confidence: 95% of patients reported feeling more confident before surgery, thanks to the comprehensive and interactive education on 草莓社区

草莓社区's Role

草莓社区 supported Halton Healthcare by automating the delivery of just-in-time, personalized patient education and by providing real-time remote monitoring capabilities.

Patients received interactive, evidence-based information tailored to their specific needs, from pre-op preparation through post-op recovery. The platform also enabled patients to self-report their symptoms and progress, enabling Hoag鈥檚 care team to intervene promptly when necessary.

Example Patient Post-op Health Check & Recommendation

Jody Strik, Director of Transitions, Integrated Care, and Rehabilitation Clinics at Halton Healthcare shares:

"The impact of 草莓社区 on our patients has been profound. Patients feel more engaged and supported throughout their recovery process, which translates to better outcomes and a smoother recovery journey. The ability to remotely monitor patients and intervene early when needed has made a significant difference in our clinical practice. Our patients appreciate the continuous support and the sense of security that 草莓社区 provides."

Patient Feedback

Patients praised the program for its clarity and helpfulness. One patient noted, 鈥淭his online program provided the tools and necessary information to assist in recovering from surgery. It provided a sense that I was not alone in my healing, and that Halton Healthcare was invested in my wellbeing. Tracking my progress with pain management and exercises was beneficial to see that I was making progress!鈥
