About this app
The Emily Center at Phoenix Children’s Hospital presents Our Way and surgery so that families with children who need surgery can identify what they need to know before leaving the hospital. Parts of this application could be used in clinic and emergency room consultations.
When children are in the hospital, parents may be confused to see doctors and nurses who speak with difficult technical words. Sometimes health professionals believe they speak clearly but don't see if patients understand their indications. If you are able to repeat the information you are taught in your own words, then you will be sure that you understood.
The Our Way and surgery application is designed to:
- be used from the moment of admission and throughout the hospitalization, to facilitate communication between families and the health care team.
- Help parents identify what they need to know before leaving the hospital.
-give parents a way to admit that they do not know or understand what they are told and ask questions.
-orient families about what information they need to tell or demonstrate to the nurse or doctor.
In this way the health care team can confirm that the family received the correct information and knows how to take care of the patient without errors.
- Help families feel confident that they can take care of the child at home after discharge, know the signs of problems and know what to do.
The Emily Center, Phoenix Children’s Hospital
Founded in 1990, the center is named in honor of Emily Anderson. Emily fought a rare form of leukemia for four years after losing her battle a few days before her 17th birthday.
Frustrated by the lack of easy-to-understand information, parents founded The Emily Center so that families of sick children could always receive information about children's health that was true, easy to understand and free for Arizona families. http://www.emilycenter.org and on Twitter @emilycenter.
The Our Way application and surgery received a Cox subsidy.
