The problem

Every discharge means reading the whole file and typing it all again.

Notes, charts, lab slips and reports. To write the discharge summary, a doctor goes through every page and types every section by hand.

Safety

The doctor stays in charge.

Discharge Desk writes the first draft. A doctor makes it final.

  • Every line is reviewed

    Nothing is final until a doctor has checked it, edited it and signed it.

  • Written from the file

    The draft is built from the pages you photograph, in your unit's own format.

  • Sign-in for every doctor

    Doctors sign in with their Google account, and the app lists only their own cases.

  • Made on the wards

    Built by a doctor, and improved with feedback from the doctors who use it.

MBBS · Curious, building and breaking things · Always learning

I'm a doctor, and I'm curious about how things work. I like picking up a problem, building something for it, breaking it, and learning along the way.

Discharge Desk started on the wards, where one discharge summary took 40–60 minutes to type. Now doctors in five departments use it every day.

Always happy to talk with anyone who's building something.

Each unit gets its own discharge format. Write to us and we'll set yours up.
