Assessment of the Degree to which I Successfully Leveraged Health Care Technology in the Capstone Project to Improve Outcomes or Communication with the Patient, Family, or Group Technology was also a major contributor to the success of the project. Primarily, telehealth was used as a means of communication with the patient and among the healthcare team members. In addition, technology was essential for tracking patients on their level of compliance, thus facilitating the project’s success. In addition, tracking the effectiveness of the intervention was possible through the electronic health records, making it easier to access and retrieve information on the number of readmissions, any complication related to noncompliance as well as the costs used to deal with such complications. Besides, electronic health records were necessary to collect, store and share information within the health care team, to help the providers keep track of the current patient interventions. Moreover, the patient could freely ask any question on their disease or interventions implemented as part of their care, using telehealth.
