Gain visibility of patient flow through your hospital
Moving patients through your healthcare facility in an efficient and safe manner requires specialised patient flow technology and proven patient flow management solutions. Patient flow is central to the successful delivery of healthcare, ensuring effective decision-making and minimal delays. Real-time location systems (RTLS) for healthcare use radio frequency identification (RFID), combined with an interactive software platform, to centralise your existing data and provide real-time control and visibility of operational and clinical performance. Providing all stakeholders with access to data-rich dashboards helps to improve hospital handover times, reduce overcrowding and risk of transmission, improve communications and most importantly, improve patient flow.
Our patient flow technology and management solution provides the hardware, software for automation in healthcare, and GS1-compliant labels to bring the system data together, facilitating data-driven decisions to improve efficiencies in the patient pathway.
