DEATH BY MEDICAL MISTAKES HIT RECORD NUMBERSIt’s a chilling reality- one often overlooked in annual mortality statistics: Preventable medical errors persist as the No. 3 killer in the U.S. – third only to heart disease and cancer – claiming the lives of some 400,000 people each year. Subcommittee Chair on Primary Health and Aging, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Ohio said “The tragedy that we’re talking about here (is) deaths taking place that should not be taking place”.
INTRODUCING THE MEDICAL INFO MATE (THE MIM)
As STAT Medical professionals, our goal is to foster and improve patient care, reduce medical errors and assure at least a minimum standard of health information is available when a patient is seen by your Medical Professional or in the event of an emergency, the First Responder.
Our STAT Medical Info Mate device will allow you to document your critical medical information on a compact digital storage device, making your information easily available in case of routine care, or in an emergency.
Your medical history information is an important first step to ensuring an accurate diagnosis and proper care in an emergency. As seen in the article above, the slightest variance can make you a statistic.
ABOUT STAT MEDICAL RECORDSIn an emergency situation, medical personnel have only seconds to diagnose your needs and begin lifesaving procedures. Unfortunately, patients are often incapacitated and cannot communicate their special needs in an emergency and are subject to an increased risk of medical errors.
In an emergency, healthcare providers must either start from scratch or act blindly because they don’t have the patient’s medical information, relevant past history, allergies, or medications.
STAT Medical Info Mate allows for the quality of care to be improved, as patients and doctors benefit from immediate access to the patients emergency information, allowing all parties to avoid the sometimes dangerous duplication of medications and other errors associated with incomplete information.
Let STAT Medical Info Mate assist you in providing your medical information to Health Care Professionals to insure proper treatment and continued good Health.
