KEANE CARE PRESS RELEASES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

Latest VistaKEANE Clinical release offers open database architecture.

Keane Care launched the release of its latest full-suite update to its system of clinical software today.

This update moves the clinical system to an open database architecture that will accommodate databases in addition to Microsoft® Jet Engine.

"The first additional database we will offer is Microsoft SQL Server. It will provide more capacity than Jet Engine, handle many more concurrent users and deliver better performance when handling large amounts of data," said Krystal Sampson, Software Development Manager for the clinical applications.

The SQL Server database is the solution for large facilities of 250 or more beds that use many or all of the VistaKEANE clinical applications.

The 4.3 update includes other significant enhancements, many of them suggested by our clients. An example of the suite-wide changes is "What's This?" Help, a new feature that delivers instant information specific to a field. Other enhancements were made to VistaKEANE clinical applications, including ADT, Care Plan, Rehab, and Resident Assessment.
