Approval-gated accounts. Review usually takes one business day.

Observed in a three-location oral surgery deployment · North Carolina
Measured across a three-location oral surgery deployment in North Carolina. Public copy is anonymized; customer name and logo are sales-only unless broader permission is approved.
The printed sheet doesn't follow up.
After extractions and implants, the first 48 hours create the most routine calls: bleeding questions, swelling worries, gauze instructions, medication timing, and missed check-ins. Careward turns that window into a managed recovery queue instead of a phone scramble.
The instruction sheet leaves the office. The questions don't. The companion picks up where paper ends — same approved language, day-specific reminders, escalation for anything that warrants a human.

The AI handles routine. Your team handles everything else.
Careward is designed around one safety principle: if a patient message could indicate a clinical concern, a medication interaction, or a complaint — it goes to a human. The AI only responds to questions that match your pre-approved pathway content.
Escalation design
Every message the AI cannot confidently match routes immediately to your escalation queue with full context.
BAA available for covered entities
