Contemporary healthcare facilities are filled with technology systems that are increasingly sophisticated and complex. Properly planned and managed, these systems offer enormous benefit to patients, clinicians, and support staff. Unfortunately, these systems are often disparate and unable to share data between systems, resulting in operational inefficiencies and lost opportunities.
As patient satisfaction, clinician need, compliance issues, and regulatory demands drive the unique application of technology to healthcare, institutions increasingly prefer a comprehensive approach unifying disparate systems into a common topology. Strategically planned Healthcare Technology Systems reduce errors, manage alerts, streamline communications, track patient/clinician locations and assets, improve clinician efficiencies and speed bed-ready systems … ultimately resulting in improved patient outcomes and reduced costs.
Careful adherence to acoustical and vibration requirements creates a safer and healthier atmosphere for patients, families, and caregivers.
