Handwritten documentation in Hebamio: A new step in digital midwifery work

As a midwife, you've probably often felt the desire to take handwritten notes quickly and easily - without having to use the keyboard. This is exactly where the new function in Hebamio comes in: From now on, you can also handwrite in all fields in the software's documentation! And in free text mode, you can also document completely by hand!

The new possibilities that this step opens up for you make working with Hebamio even more flexible and intuitive. No more constant typing when you want to make a quick note about a patient. Instead, you can simply pick up a digital pen and enter your notes directly on the screen. The digital pen captures your handwriting in real time, so you can record everything exactly as you are used to - just on a digital medium.

Why is that a relief for you?

The integration of handwritten documentation has a number of advantages that can make your day-to-day work easier:

  • Speed and flexibility: You no longer have to laboriously type everything. This saves you a lot of time, especially when making quick, short notes or recording birth histories and other critical data that require a quick response.
  • Natural input: Your handwriting is often the fastest and most natural form of documentation for you. With the digital pen, you can record your thoughts directly and without delay on the screen.
  • Less distraction: While you are typing on the keyboard, you are often distracted by the screen view or typing speed. Handwritten documentation allows you to work in a more fluid and focused way.
  • Improved legibility: The digital pen will convert your handwriting so that it always remains legible - even compared to handwritten notes on paper.

How it works

To use handwritten documentation in Hebamio, all you need is a special digital pen. The pen is connected to the software so that you can easily write in the documentation fields on your screen. The system recognizes your entries immediately and saves them directly in the corresponding fields.

Once you have written a note, you can easily edit, delete or add to it. And if you prefer to use the keyboard, that's no problem either - you can switch seamlessly between handwriting and classic text input.

We show you how this works on the most common operating systems and devices:

Microsoft Surface: with Microsoft Pen
iPAD: with Apple Pencil
Android: with App GBoard (optional pen)
Google Chrome Desktop: with Chrome Extension Google Input Tools (optional pen)
