Emergency Education Videos
The main symptoms a patient comes into an Emergency Room with are often the same symptoms they leave with.
Why Top Doctors Use Video
in ER and Discharge
Minimize Patient Readmissions
Video instructions ensure patients have a clear understanding of their care plan when they get home — reducing costly and preventable returns to the ER.
Save Time
Leverage a library of stock educational videos to educate patients on the most common ER diagnoses without repeating the same explanation for every patient.
Ensure Medication Adherence
Bed-to-Med conversations are more effective when recorded. Patients can rewatch medication instructions at home, improving first-fill rates and treatment outcomes.
ER / Discharge Use Case
Patient or family downloads The Medical Memory app. They immediately begin receiving information from your ER about their care — before they even see the provider.
For the treatments doctors see most often, patients watch and share their instructions and diagnosis. Providers aren't repeating themselves — and can ensure the patient understands before leaving.
Any custom or additional information can be recorded by the physician or nurse team. Say it once — and the patient has it forever.
What Should We Record?
Our team can help you create an easy script or checklist for your team to follow on every recorded video — ensuring consistency, quality, and complete patient comprehension every time.
- Diagnosis explanation and next steps
- Medication dosing and adherence instructions
- Warning signs that require returning to the ER
- Follow-up appointment reminders
