The patient is able to  view their medications, vital signs, care team, lab results, and much more. Patients are also able to send messages to their nurses and physicians, as well. Patient's can also access educational handouts and videos that are specific to their diagnosis. The application is loaded onto a tablet that the patient can access directly at the bedside.
