Facilitating Interdisciplinary Collaboration in Healthcare

Interdisciplinary collaboration in healthcare is essential for delivering the best possible patient outcomes. Remote access software, as shown below, is an essential tool for interdisciplinary collaboration.

Advantages of Healthcare Interdisciplinary Collaboration

First of all, what is multidisciplinary collaboration? The answer to this question is a very straightforward one. Namely it’s when patient care is done as a team effort, involving medical professionals of different medical specialties. This can play a huge part in the patient outcome.

According to Johnson & Johnson Nursing, there are multiple advantages to the approach. Some of these are, according to the same source:

  • reduced adverse drug reactions and optimized medication dosages.
  • emergency hospitalisation prevention.
  • lower morbidity and mortality rates.

Considering the above, it makes sense for medical organization to approach patient care this way.

Technology plays a huge role in this. It facilitates collaboration between medical professionals, especially through remote access solutions. And the adoption rate is quite significant. According to a McKinsey report, quoted in our telehealth blog, telehealth utilization is 38 times what it was before the pandemic. 

With the use of cutting-edge technology, healthcare providers can nurture interdisciplinary collaboration. This leads, in turn, to comprehensive care for their patients, as well as better caring for their needs.

How RealVNC Connect Facilitates Interdisciplinary Collaboration

Here are some great ways RealVNC Connect helps medical professionals work together for the benefit of their patients. We’ll be looking at the following three examples out of the many possible ones:

  1. Real-time Data Sharing
  2. Collaborative Diagnostics
  3. Training and Education

Let’s look at each one of these.

Real-time Data Sharing

The File Transfer feature allows all the medical professionals on the team to access the machine where patient history or test results are stored. Having to update and access a single source of truth makes things much quicker. Both the medical team and patients benefit significantly from this. No more outdated documentation sent via email.

Collaborative Diagnostics

Accessing the same medical equipment and looking at imaging or test results is a breeze with RealVNC Connect. The whole team can access the same device. This can even happen if the happen if the patient is in a completely different location. Due to the power of remote access, it will be as if they are all in front of the same device.

Training and Education

The biggest obstacle in the way of efficient team training is distance. And, of course, the travel costs it inevitably leads to.

But what if your whole interdisciplinary team could be trained in the use of a medical device from wherever they may be? And this, just as if they were sitting in front of the device in question. 

This is perfectly possible with RealVNC Connect. All team members, together with the trainer, can access the device in question and learn how to use it. And this, without any travel. 

These are just some of the ways RealVNC Connect remote access can support interdisciplinary medical teams. There are literally dozens of others, as we find out from our healthcare customers on a daily basis.

More importantly, you can do all this without worrying about data security. RealVNC Connect makes sure that your patients’ data is always kept secure. Find out more about healthcare data security with RealVNC here.
