A digital ICU diary opens up possibilities that were, up until now, unfeasible.
For example, Post-ICU offers more functionality than a paper alternative.

Post-ICU is currently the only digital ICU diary on the market.
Digital has a number of benefits over paper diaries. Most importantly, a digital ICU diary means that multiple people can journal simultaneously about the occurrences on the ICU. No matter the place, or the time zone of the writer. It also means that when the patient wakes up, they get to read about their experiences from multiple perspectives(ICU personnel, family, friends), allowing them to put the puzzle pieces together more easily.
Additionally, Post-ICU is private and secure. Our documents, processes and the application itself all comply with standard US hospital security, legal and privacy practice. All data that is entered in Post-ICU’s digital diary is saved on US-based Google servers, and maintained by an ISO27001-certified hosting partner.
Finally, general journaling apps are not integrated into the hospital’s protocols and do not allow for any collaboration between ICU caregivers and family members of patients.
Our team does not just tell you how to integrate the digital diary into your existing protocols. We go a step further and educate your ICU personnel about Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) and person-centered care. Because our mission is to come together to fight PICS.
Our implementation service is more than just getting the technicalities right. We offer:
We also believe in the value of education, which is why our implementation service includes:

“With a digital icu diary, things like consent, privacy, and ownership can be regulated much more professionally. Even a scenario like ‘what to do in case of death’ is something we have never actually heard of as a problem.
On the contrary, many families use the Post-ICU diary to help with mourning or even read from it during a funeral.
By arranging in the user agreement that diaries can be deleted at any time (Right to Erasure, better known as the ‘Right to be Forgotten’, a GDPR directive), that aspect can also be well controlled.”
Post-ICU is trusted by +25 Hospital's in Europe and US
