• Increase patient satisfaction
Giving patients more information is associated with increased patient satisfaction, better compliance and better recall and understanding of medical conditions.
• Reduce incidence of medical malpractice
Failure to properly inform and explain material facts to patients is an element in over 30% of malpractice suits.
• Reduce costs
If the time spent
on patient education could be cut in half,
it would be equivalent to hiring nearly
90,000 new, experienced nurses within the
US health care industry.

• Alleviate nursing shortage issues
Nurses can use
the OIES™ to significantly decrease
the time (by almost 50%) it takes to do
standard and repetitive pre-operative teaching,
allowing them to concentrate on patient-specific
issues during the consultation.
• Ensure credibility of information.
A survey reviewing
patient education materials showed that
information on the Internet and in certain
published sources is often either inaccurate or
too medically advanced. Each OIES™
title has over 25 hours of credible information
written in a language patients can understand.
• Versatility
The OIES™
has been developed primarily for patient
education but is also used by institutions
in the education of nurses new to oncology
and those shifting their specialty, physician's
assistants, medical students and residents.
