ECHO Cancer Foundation helps patients, families and
friends stay connected with new CarePages.com services
Norwich, CT – The ECHO Cancer Foundation now offers patients, their families
and friends free access to CarePages.com, healthcare’s largest social network to
provide the emotional support needed for healing and well-being.
CarePages.com enables those involved in a health event to create private Web
sites for sharing health updates, photos and supportive messages.
CarePages.com also has resources to help people cope with the emotional
challenges of a health event, including inspiring stories, tools to meet others in
similar situations, and practical tips and advice on “what to do” and “what to say”
during difficult and stressful situations.
With this new service, The ECHO Cancer Foundation and ECHO Associates are
in the forefront of a growing trend among healthcare providers to improve the
overall patient experience by recognizing and meeting their emotional needs.
“CarePages helps ECHO patients move forward on one of our key priorities—
increasing patient well-being and overall patient and family satisfaction,” said
Laura Stevenson-Flom, Executive Director, “It’s very easy to use, since we’ve
integrated CarePages.com with our own Web site.”
CarePages.com is secure and compliant with all HIPAA requirements. It ensures
that patients, families and healthcare providers are protected online through strict
privacy policies, password-protection and visitor management tools for CarePage
Managers.
