Find out what oncology nurses say about OIES™

Helping alleviate the nursing shortage & improving quality of care
For decades, the health care system has been making significant investments in system capabilities (i.e. on-line products, claim processing, records keeping, MIS) trying to achieve economies in the face of escalating healthcare costs. However, one facet of health care that is still done the expensive old-fashioned way is patient education.

The cost implications
More than 2 million nurses in the U.S. spend over 12% of their time doing one-on-one patient education at an annual cost of over $13 billion. Unfortunately, with today's nursing shortage, nurses just don't have this time anymore and patients are the ones left at a disadvantage.

Computer-based learning
Interactive education programs like the Oncology Interactive™ Education Series (OIES™) can bring new economies of scale to the health system by saving doctors and nurses' time while simultaneously improving the quality and depth of education patients receive.

The health care community is embracing interactive computer-based learning with open arms. Together we can revolutionize the way patient education is delivered and improve quality of care in this country. To learn how your agency can get involved contact: partners@oncologyinteractive.com

what does the OIES offer
• Reduce costs
The cost of hiring support staff and printing patient education materials can be drastically reduced by implementing the OIES™.

• Alleviate nursing shortage issues
If the time nurses spend on patient education could be cut in half with interactive learning tools like the OIES™, it would be equivalent to hiring nearly 90,000 experienced nurses in the U.S.

• Improve job satisfaction
A study revealed widespread nurse dissatisfaction and concern for patient well-being. Not only are there insufficient nurses to do what needs to be done, but the nurses that are on duty are severely overworked. The OIES™ can provide the support nurses require.

• Improve patient health outcomes
Giving patients more information is associated with increased patient satisfaction, better compliance, better recall and understanding of medical conditions and overall improved health outcomes.
