Support System
Patients and their families are increasingly demanding more than just clinical expertise from their caregivers--many crave emotional support, as well. The Web site CarePages.com, a Revolution Health Group subsidiary designed to help people cope with the emotional difficulties caused by a health event, is one way providers can offer such support.
The site provides free Web pages that allow patients, family and friends to communicate during times of illness. The personalized pages allow users to post journal updates about recovery progress, post photos, find other CarePages members with similar conditions, and seek advice on discussion boards.
The site has garnered plenty of interest; nearly 700 U.S. and Canadian healthcare organizations offer personalized CarePages. Visit www.carepages.com to learn more.
