Health Nuts Media content provides hospitals with innovative experiences which enable children and their families to be better informed and live healthier lives. With engaging animations reviewed by a team of medical experts, this comprehensive content library provides health education that young patients value and relate to. By taking complicated concepts and framing them in a fashion that children find informative, interesting, and fun, Health Nuts Media helps pediatric patients enjoy enhanced recoveries and healthier outcomes.
Because Health Nuts Media content is delivered to children using Skylight’s Care Navigator, clinicians can select and program condition-specific content that will best benefit their patient. Health Nuts Media content helps to build a complete “Pediatric Care Map” which is created specifically for the pediatric patient, family members, and the people who care for them throughout the continuum of care.
“The exciting aspect of partnering with Skylight is to have a delivery system for our content that puts the right information in front of the right patient at the right time,” says Health Nuts Media CEO Tim Jones. “We have always taken pride in the quality of our content. Now, we are thrilled with the ability to have this content delivered directly to the patient bedside via the Skylight system. Since hospitals can know who’s watching, for how long, and when, the value of the educational experiences we create for children can deliver even more of a positive and enduring impact.”
Because younger patients are comfortable engaging with digitally-delivered, animated content, and almost expect to be communicated with on a platform such as Skylight’s Care Navigator, the addition of the acclaimed Health Nuts Media content adds particular value to Skylight’s clinically reviewed library of more than 3,000 titles.
“Giving our hospital partners more peer-reviewed choices of educational content is one of our core initiatives,” says Skylight CEO Tom Klopack. “Pediatric education is an essential ingredient and the addition of the Health Nuts titles to our library of educational content enables our pediatric hospital clients to communicate more effectively than ever with young patients. We are pleased to offer these health communication tools from Health Nuts, which cover specific conditions ranging from asthma to bone fractures, into Skylight’s CareNavigator™. Patients benefit from condition-specific content, and nurses benefit from being freed from the task of documenting this into the Electronic Medical Record. And to support the care continuum, these young patients head home better informed and better able to enjoy strong recoveries.”
As hospitals become more accountable for their patients’ clinical and financial management, Skylight’s CareNavigator has emerged as an essential tool for managing the comprehensive continuum of care extending from pre-admission, the hospital stay, and the transition of care. Impacting more than 1.5 million hospital stays a year, the system integrates with the patient’s hospital room TV monitor to provide education, services, and essential information.
