Today’s healthcare environment is filled with challenges. Critical shortages of skilled nurses, cost containment pressures and compliance with legislation are just a few of the issues that both hospitals and medical care establishments face. By moving a lot of menial tasks in a hospital from their current analogue form to a digital medium, an overall increase of efficiency can be established. With the help of our wireless mesh networking technology, we can provide additional services to solve these problems and increase hospital efficiency.

Some of the problems that need to be solved or areas that can be made more efficient are as follows:

• Reducing administrative overheads to allow more time for interaction with patients
• Creating a safer environment through reduced medical errors and improved medical safety of people, equipment and information
• Managing costs through improved operational efficiency and streamlined processes
• Increasing access to data services and data for the mobile population of the staff

Information Decentralization:

In addition to improving the effectiveness of staff, wireless solutions can transform bedside care by providing immediate access to important and up to date health information, such as prescription databases, dosage recommendations, and patient records. In triage situations, wireless solutions can save time and lives

Through out digitization and systems such as PACS, doctors would not have to waste time waiting for X-Rays and MRI’s; all imaging can be stored centrally and accessed by the doctor on the patients bedside either by PDA or by a terminal placed by the side of the patient.

Efficiency through mobility:

• All over IP – IP over all: Datacom, phones, TV, radio, messaging
• Improved availability and access to information wirelessly while the doctor is on the move
• Efficient and secure access to information via mobile terminals: cordless VoIP phones, PDAs wireless laptops and tablet computers
• Improved co-operation and communication through better communication between Physician to Physician, Physician to Nurse, Laboratories to Physician, Physician to Patients and Patient to Nurse
• Higher patient security

Through a wireless network, information, services, applications, communication and more are all tools that can be implemented to increase the efficiency and services in a hospital allowing the staff, both medical and administrative to focus on the patient.
