Portsmouth,
RI - June 5, 2003
- MontegoNet, a leader in interactive kiosk solutions, has
been selected as the official kiosk supplier for MedSelfEd,
a Massachusetts-based content provider for the medical patient
education market. This partnership will enable MedSelfEd
to offer its hospital clients an exciting new delivery channel
for its patient education materials. MontegoNet kiosks located
within hospitals and clinics will provide patients with
access to a wealth of health-related programs, dealing with
both pre- and post-operative issues.
"Patient
education is essential to preserving healthcare quality
while decreasing healthcare costs. Interactive kiosks allow
hospitals to meet these goals and achieve JHACO compliance,"
said John Samellas, CEO of MedSelfEd. "The combination
of MedSelfEd educational content and MontegoNet interactive
kiosks enables hospitals to communicate important medical
information to patients, track the presentation and test
for comprehension. A record of the education session may
then be included in the patient's medical record."
MedSelfEd hospital
customers can choose from a variety of interactive kiosk
styles and colors. Optional features include silk screening,
secure headphones for added patient privacy, and printers
that allow patients to print educational information. MontegoNet
kiosks feature easy-to-use touch screens, making them ideal
for patients of all ages.
