About Caresharing

Caresharing enables healthcare organizations and their professionals to use their full collaboration potential. Caresharing connects all parties active within the healthcare sector. To this end, Caresharing develops modern, future-proof highly interoperable collaboration software that increases the quality and efficiency of multidisciplinary care, stimulates patient participation and self-management and makes remote patient monitoring possible in an easy way. Caresharing firmly believes that the power of networked care has the potential to profoundly change healthcare, one that is more open and more patient oriented.

Caresharing’s platform cBoards supports theme-based collaboration between healthcare professionals, patients and informal caregivers. cBoards combines multidisciplinary patient health records with communication tools and home monitoring. 

What problems does Caresharing solve?

cBoards solves problems related to collaboration between healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers. With cBoards professionals can start a so-called ‘board’ (a theme-based multidisciplinary patient health record) and invite any relevant other professional or team of professionals. The relevant medical data, as well as the different communication possibilities in the board, result in a highly efficient collaboration and effective coordination of the healthcare delivery process. In addition, professionals can easily keep a close eye on patients in their home situation. Via hardware devices patients can measure their own vital signs, which become visible in the board and are therefore accessible to everyone in the board.

cBoards allows patients to be more involved in their health care process. By getting invited to a board, healthcare professionals and informal caregivers can stimulate patient participation and self-management. This can be done by letting them (automatically) register medical data, keep close contact via chat or video calls and/or by providing them educational information around their disease or health situation. 

With cBoards, everyone is familiar with the current patient status, who’s involved in the process and what needs to be done.

What makes Caresharing unique?

Firstly, cBoards is a collaboration platform that combines multidisciplinary patient health records with communication tools like chat and video calling. Caresharing works on the principle that in order to provide good and efficient care in a multidisciplinary setting, it must be possible to share relevant medical data with each other. In addition, cBoards provides remote monitoring options. The unique part of cBoards in this field is that professionals working together (care, cure, social domain) can hand over this patient home monitoring responsibility to one another.

Secondly, cBoards is theme-based. This means that patient health records only contain medical data relevant for the particular type of collaboration.

Next, cBoards is a platform for all types of collaborations. The cBoards library contains approximately 35 different types of boards and is expanding rapidly. E.g. astma, COPD, COVID-19, diabetes, elderly care, heart failure, medication compliance, medication review, palliative care, stroke and wound care. 

Furthermore, cBoards is web based and has native mobile apps (iOS and Android) that have all features of the web based version, it is also highly flexible as the software is modeled/configured.
