Information for participants
We have co-designed a Digital Health Summary that:
- Can be used by residents, their families and healthcare staff
- Provides a summary of important health information
- Was built with residents, their families, aged care staff, paramedics, GPs and hospital staff.
The aim of the trial is to test if the digital health summary is useful, acceptable and practical.
Testing of the digital health summary to commence in July 2024 at Peninsula Health, Ambulance Victoria and Regis Rosebud with subsequent testing at Regis Frankston and Arcare Balnarring.
Staff, residents and relatives at involved sites have been notified of the project via email, newsletters and/or presentations and given access to resources including training videos and information on how to access the digital health summary.
If you have not received this information and would like to request access to the Digital Health Summary, please get in touch.
