Client Forum

Free Webinar scheduled for early to mid-February

Designed to help Skylight clients increase patient utilization of their Skylight ACCESS systems, Skylight is sponsoring a free webinar in early to mid-February.
 
The online event will be an open forum that will encourage the informal sharing of best practices
and ideas for better communicating to clinical staff ways to encourage their patients to make
greater usage of their ACCESS system. Internal studies have shown that hospitals with high levels
of patient ACCESS usage are able to see greater efficiencies, increased productivity, better patient satisfaction, and improved return on investment. An onscreen presentation will be a part of the event.
 
Watch for further details in the upcoming weeks.
