Enterprise Mobility enables information to be captured and consumed at the point of the work activity, which leads to better productivity and improved decision-making.

In a hospital’s complex ecosystem, people centric workflows abound and the resultant fluid structure requires unified communication and collaboration. This calls for anytime, anywhere access to information and mobility is the sole solution. In an environment as fast paced and crucial as a hospital, mobility solutions add immediate

impact to varied stakeholders and bring about enterprise wide efficiencies.

The healthcare industry today is witnessing an ideology shift, with more emphasison patient-centered care. Government mandates and regulations, along with rising patient expectations have led to hospitals increasing focus on patient engagement and satisfaction. A growing amount of data too validates that when a patient’s role shifts from a passive recipient to a more active participant in his own care, the results are shared decision making, informed choices and for hospitals, lower costs and better performance.

The quality of a patient’s clinical interactions withinthe hospital’s system is a major determining factor in patient satisfaction. Mobility Solutions can provide a range of tools to caregivers and administrators alike to involve, monitor and enhance patient experience. Interactive surveys, demos, personalized content all aid the patient towards a deeper understanding of his/her treatment options and can positively affect outcome and satisfaction.

By the very nature of their profession, physicians are constantly on the move. For them to focus on quality care, they need anytime anywhere access to vital information – patient data, lab results, reference manuals and more. Coupled with effective team communication, real time updates and productivity tools, all avail-able in the comfort of a handy, intuitive device, adds to their capability to deliver better care.

With point of care mobility solutions such as EHRs on mobile, drug formularies, collaborative dashboards for peer consultations, bedside access points, and medical simulators, physicians can engage with and treat a greater number of patients more effectively.

Nurses are at the forefront of bedside care – Liaising between patients, family, physicians and administra-tors. But rampant understaffing, extended shift hours, increased documentation requirement and sheer fatigue is slowly diminishing their point-of-care effectiveness today.

However, with the power of text, voice, data capture, real time critical data access and departmental con-nectivity, mobility has the solution. From timely alerts, alarm escalations, monitoring patient medication to facilitating collaboration with physicians and, everything in between; mobility has armed nurses with the information they need at their fingertips. The results are powerful – from saved trips to the nurses’ station to increased patient safety. A win-win overall.

69% of hospitals indicated that nursing staff use personal smartphones on the job*

Does your IT strategy translate that as a risk or strength?

The heart of a hospital lies in its efficient workflows and streamlined operations.

For example, effective bed management in a hospital requires timely coordination among varied people involved in all aspects of patient care. Similarly hospital capacity management is the lifeblood that pulls in data from disparate hospital systems. Alerts to warn of resource shortages, performance monitoring, quality checklists are just the beginning of what an integrated mobile solutioncan offer hospitals today.
