Track equipment, people in tight spaces
Control high-dollar inventory
Hospitals can gain a powerful tool for managing expensive physician preference items (PPIs) such as stents, pacemakers, implants and orthopedic supplies by using McKesson radio frequency identification (RFID) cabinets to automate inventory control. A nurse can simply scan a badge, select the correct patient case with needed supplies and then go on rounds. The smart cabinet does the rest. Its built-in, low-touch technology automatically captures the supply data and updates the clinical case and inventory. McKesson
RTLS with integrated Wi-Fi
VA standardizes on CenTrak RTLS
Monitor hand hygiene events in real time
This is not just another soap dispenser. It also monitors, measures and helps you manage hand hygiene participation. Powered by Versus’ real-time locating system (RTLS), SafeHaven automated hand hygiene monitoring provides unbiased, accurate data to promote a culture of safety and accountability in your facility. The infrared and RFID technology used in this system accurately identifies individuals, registers their location and detects necessary hand hygiene events. Versus Technology
Plan and optimize your Wi-Fi network
The next-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard will bring a number of improvements, resulting in increased data rates and capacity. But 802.11ac also makes network planning and analysis more challenging. The Ekahau Site Survey version 6.0 (ESS) is a Wi-Fi design and deployment software tool that enables streamlined Wi-Fi network planning (both manual and automatic), site surveys, capacity estimation and administration. Automated access-point placement and channel optimization minimize interference and overlap to ensure adequate coverage. Ekahau
Real-time visibility of resources, staff
The Capacity Management Suite system 3.0 integrates advanced patient flow, business intelligence and RTLS technologies to help hospital executives better manage all areas of their organization impacted by patient demand. This solution provides real-time visibility and accountability to maximize performance for a broad spectrum of daily activities, including transfers, in-patient tracking, staff location, recent admissions and discharges, room assignments and cleans, mobile equipment searches and critical workflow improvement. TransportTracking and BedTracking apps are supported for iPad. TeleTracking Technologies
BI comes to RTLS
The combined business intelligence solution from Stanley Healthcare and Tableau Software delivers unprecedented visibility and insight into healthcare operations. For example, Wi-Fi RFID tags used to track and manage medical devices can generate large amounts of valuable data about the workflow of those devices, their location and their utilization. With the Stanley Healthcare and Tableau Software solution, healthcare organizations can better analyze this data and make quicker and better informed decisions. Stanley Healthcare
