A system and method for processing normalized voice feedback for use in automated patient care is described. One or more physiological measures relating to individual patient information and one or more quality of life measures relating to normalized spoken patient self-assessment indicators are retrieved from a patient care record. Each quality of life measure is recorded substantially contemporaneous to the physiological measures. The physiological measures and the contemporaneously recorded quality of life measures retrieved from one such patient care record are analyzed to determine a patient status.
