As a result of deploying the COMS Daylight IQ™ Product Suite, an empowered nursing staff more effectively manages residents with multiple diseases and afflictions through the use of disease management focused information, configurable nursing assessments and rules-based alert systems. 

The Challenge - Many nursing facilities have attempted to address the problem of disease management for skilled residents, but have endeavored to do so without a comprehensive system in place.  The more progressive homes are leveraging a paper-based solution or primitive technologies with limited success.  The concept of defined disease categories,assessments, signs/symptoms, pertinent content, prompts and interventions, appropriate approval processes and advanced reporting capabilities is non-existent in the market today.

Existing automated systems attempt to make nurses more efficient, but these systems only provide the ability to document and record data. They fail to provide processes and systems that guide a nursing staff to provide appropriate care.  Some facilities are focusing on marketing efforts to increase the ratio of skilled bed occupancy, without the tools to manage the opportunity.  At the other end of the spectrum, facilities have focused on the MDS requirement, which was never meant to be a clinical operations tool for proactively increasing care or for impacting overall revenue.

 

The Daylight IQ Product Suite Solution - Daylight IQ is a unique system created by clinicians for clinicians.  It integrates standardized processes, disease management, outcomes measurement and document performance improvement.  The Daylight IQ Nursing Assessment is completely configurable to work in conjunction with existing procedures.  With Daylight IQ, medical directors, family physicians and facility physicians, directors of nursing, nursing supervisors, and nurses aides can effortlessly work in concert with each other.

Daylight IQ focuses directly on empowering the entire medical team to deliver a higher quality of care.  Specific efficiencies, including interfaces and integration with key internal systems, are all part of the COMS product offering.
