When
children are hospitalized, information exchange is vital and critical,
but constrained by emotional stress, time and learning aptitudes.
Parents need to comprehend information to make informed decisions
for their child’s care and practitioners need parent information
for diagnosis and care purposes. Currently, this information is exchanged
in informal conversations. |

A
combination of the child’s personal medical record and an
educational database, Joshua provides parents with access to relevant
education and opportunities to share information. Practitioners
can track the family's educational efforts.
