11:00 – 11:40         Alarms, Notification and Collaboration at the Point-of-Care

Bruce Haviland, CIO, UPMC Mercy, Pittsburgh

Collaboration is at the heart of today’s clinical workflow. Nurses need timely Smart alerts when their patient’s condition changes, be notified when their patient has new stat orders, or when their patient is to be transported to an ancillary testing area. Unified Communications on a converged Smartphone device is rapidly changing these processes. Nurses are now communicating via text messaging and being alerted by Smart timely alerts, freeing them up from the continual searching in the EMR for these status changes. Discover what UPMC Mercy Hospital has learned over the past year from their nurses using BlackBerry Smartphones plus clinical applications at the point-of-care.
