Yardi® Enhances EHR Care Stream App, Sponsors Changemakers Series

Yardi® has enhanced its Yardi® EHR Care Stream app, which enables point-of-care charting and related administrative tasks on mobile devices, said a recent press release. The app has been updated to help nurses and other care staff in senior living communities easily and efficiently maintain resident records.

 

The upgrade adds order resolution functionality to the Yardi EHR Care Stream. Previously, users had to log in to Yardi EHR to perform order resolutions before charting orders in the Yardi EHR Care Stream app. Yardi EHR is an electronic health record system fully integrated into the Yardi® Senior Living Suite.

 

Yardi is also sponsoring the 2021 Senior Housing News (SHN) Changemakers interview series, which spotlights exceptional leadership in senior living. SHN has announced the first group, which includes Terri Cunliffe of LeadingAge CAST Patron Covenant Living.
