Recommendations in Pear Suite act as smart, text-based prompts that appear within a member’s profile when specific conditions are met based on collected data. These suggestions serve as a digital notebook or reminder, helping care teams follow best practices and ensure that critical follow-up steps are never overlooked.

Understanding recommendations as clinical cues

Recommendations are "gentle nudges" from the system that highlight potential next steps based on what has been learned about a member. It is important to note that recommendations do not take any automatic actions; instead, they empower the user to make informed decisions. Whether it is assigning a new goal, initiating a specific assessment, or contacting a community partner, these prompts ensure that the care provided is responsive to the member's documented needs.

Components of a recommendation

To provide clear guidance without overwhelming the user, each recommendation is structured with two key elements:

• Title: A concise summary of the identified issue and the primary action to consider.
• Description: Detailed context explaining why the recommendation appeared and providing specific guidance on the suggested next steps.

Impact on workflow and care coordination

By integrating these smart prompts directly into the member profile, Pear Suite makes complex workflows more efficient and reduces the mental load on staff. This feature is particularly effective for catching high-priority needs that might otherwise be missed. For example, if a member screens positive for food insecurity during a routine check-in, the system can automatically recommend a detailed food access assessment or the addition of a nutritional support goal, ensuring a seamless transition from identification to intervention.
