1Call Feature of the Month: Patient Transfer

Streamlining the Patient Transfer Process

Every healthcare facility strives to provide the best care for their patients. When a patient’s healthcare needs change, transferring the patient to a different facility sometimes becomes the best choice. While transferring a patient in or out of your facility may seem overwhelming, 1Call has the tools to help you through the process.

1Call’s innovative communication applications are customizable to handle your organization’s specific workflows. While each transfer center has unique protocols, 1Call has the communication modules to manage the patient transfer process efficiently.
