Paging is at the heart of today’s clinical workflow.  Physicians need to be alerted when critical results are ready for review. Nurses need to page MD’s when their patient’s conditions change or to seek discharge approval.  However the promise of Unified Communications on a converged Smartphone device is rapidly changing these workflows.  Discover how Alerting solutions can imbed lab reports or EKG images, how voice and text can improve collaboration, and how Smartphone’s can help achieve meaningful use targets for your affiliated MD’s.

ISV Partner Speaker

Nurses walk on average 4 – 5 miles during a 12 hour shift, which has raised questions around fatigue, efficiency, and the impact on quality of care.  Studies suggest up to 12-30% of hospital staff time could be recaptured with Unified Communication solutions at the point of care.  BlackBerry ‘SIM-optional’ WiFi Smartphone’s with Nurse Call, Telemetry, and VoIP capabilities are empowering clinicians with the information and communication capabilities they need to improve productivity, quality, and safety.
