- Healthcare providers are under increasing pressure to improve operational efficiency
- Tracking the location of patients, staff, and equipment is central to managing the patient throughput process. Providing real time information on the location and status of critical resources allows hospitals to increase revenues, improve efficiency, and increase patient and staff satisfaction
- Using standards-based, off-the-shelf location technology based on WiFi and RFID yields the greatest benefit at the lowest cost
- The Smart Hospital of the future will integrate location with key clinical applications to provide clinicians and administrators with the right information at the right time, and the right place
