The use of RTLS in healthcare leads to improved and faster patient care and is excellent for gathering data for improving operations and processes in general. Evaluating the numbers from real-time tracking of people and medical assets can help you create streamlined and efficient processes where they are needed. These insights will save you time in life-threatening situations and tremendous costs in the long run.
Through its unique efficiency algorithm, SmartX HUB’s RTLS enables optimal placement, routing, and medical equipment utilization. Thereby reducing wait and idle times. The SmartX HUB RTLS platform can be easily integrated into an existing hospital information system (HIS/ERP) via an open API and effectively communicate between operational management, staff, and patients. In addition, resource planning processes such as bed requirements, medication monitoring, or ward trolley inventory can be automated. Medical equipment tracking also offers adequate theft protection against bad investments due to supposed losses or non-traceability.
Healthcare services can also get:
IMPROVED NURSING SATISFACTION - Nurses can quickly locate everything from telemetry packs to IV pumps. The time spent walking the halls in search of equipment is now redirected to value-added patient care activities.
ENHANCED WORKFLOW FOR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE - Biomedical teams benefit from a more organized, informed approach to their daily work with features designed for preventive maintenance routines.
BETTER PATIENT CARE - When correctly maintained equipment is easily found, nurses spend more time at the bedside and less time searching. With increased focus on caregiving, patient satisfaction scores can improve by 15 points. The following video illustrates this shared increase in accuracy and efficiency of the RTLS in the Healthcare process.
