Real-time information helps hospitals improve patient care and operational efficiency. Most of the systems we deploy in hospitals quantify payback of their initial investment in 9-18 months.
Reduce search time - Our studies show reduction of up to 75% in equipment search times, so patients are treated sooner and nurses spend less time in non-care tasks.
Reduce rental charges - You don't rent equipment solely because your inventory count is light. In many cases, you rent equipment because you simply can't find your own valued assets. Many hospitals can reduce their rental charges by 50% by finding and using their own tagged assets.
Reduce shrinkage - Did another telemetry unit get wrapped up in the soiled laundry and sent through the wash? Did a patient leave the hospital with your monitor? Are some assets leaving with staff? RTLS systems build a record of the location and departure of each asset, and may create a powerful deterrent to shrinkage.
Increase utilization and efficiency - Optimize workflow, reduce downtime, improve patient flow, and speed up room and bed turnover. All by exploiting the real-time information on patient and asset movement and location you gather with an RTLS system.
Comply with regulations and recall notices - Meet Joint Commission regulations for temperature monitoring, and assure 100% compliance with equipment recall updates, because you can find each recalled asset.
Improve equipment maintenance - Alert your maintenance staff of the specific location of each asset on the exact day that its preventative maintenance is due.
