Business Context

Beyond the Booking

In-home care requires coordinated clinical and operational workflows.

Healthcare agencies must coordinate physician-approved orders, assign the right nurse, schedule visits, verify treatments, document every clinical action, track inventory, maintain audit trails, and prepare records for regulatory reviews.
Once a visit is scheduled, nurses need timely access to patient information, treatment instructions, visit details, and clinical history while working in the field. Administrators also need visibility into visit status, documentation, inventory usage, and completed care.

As NowHealthGroup prepared to launch its in-home healthcare services, it needed to establish the digital workflows required to coordinate nurses, patient visits, clinical documentation, inventory, and operational records from day one.

Physician Orders

  • Approved treatments and patient requirements must reach the assigned nurse accurately.

Nurse Assignment

  • The right nurse needs access to the correct patient, visit, and treatment information.

Clinical Documentation

  • Every visit requires structured documentation of treatments and clinical actions.

Operational Tracking

  • Inventory, visit status, and records need to remain organized and traceable.

Product Discovery

Nurse Operational Workflow

Before development, we mapped the expected nurse workflow to understand how field nurses would receive assignments, access patient information, deliver treatments, document care, and complete visits.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Built for Nurses

A dedicated mobile workspace for managing in-home patient visits.

Based on the discovery process, we identified that NowApp needed to support the complete nurse journey rather than simply provide access to patient information. Nurses needed one reliable place to receive assignments, review patient and treatment details, manage visits, document care, and complete required records while working in the field.
NowApp was developed as the nurse-facing application within the AllMedsNow ecosystem, with these workflows at its core. The product was designed to keep critical information accessible throughout the visit while providing a structured foundation for secure, consistent, and scalable care delivery.

For Nurses

  • Receive visit assignments

  • Navigate to patient locations

  • Document treatments & clinical records

For Administrators

  • Complete operational visibility

  • Oversight across every visit
