In addition to procuring resident data generated by the facility, you have the ability to obtain and exchange information with outside sources, integrated delivery systems, physicians' offices, vendors, and community health sources. Achieve PathLinks was developed with this in mind, and allows facilities to choose from a full line of applications specifically designed to support the daily operations of post-acute care facilities.
Facilities can start with a few applications and, if necessary, add modules quickly and easily.
In environments in which more than one server is used, FirstWatch facilitates automatic failover of applications from one server to another in the event that one of the systems becomes disabled. This functionality provides an additional level of reliability and ensures high availability for mission-critical Achieve PathLinks applications.
