Benefits of Nurse Call Integration to RTLS
- Patient-Centric Focus: Clinical staff presence is automatically documented so they can immediately focus on the patient.
- Accurate Response Times: Record patient call responses immediately and automatically, eliminating manual data entry and providing accurate, unbiased data for patient satisfaction and safety initiatives.
- Documented Patient Care: Know how long your staff spends at the bedside to inform staffing strategies and resource allocation.
- Informed Unit Status: Hallway call lights automatically communicate the location of your clinical staff and which patients are waiting for assistance.
- Safer, More Hygienic Environment: No cancel button; fewer touchpoints for germs to spread.
What is needed for your RTLS to be reliable for Nurse Call Automation?
“To be able to just walk in... without having to cancel the call or work with an alarm going off in the background, makes it efficient for the caregiver and reduces disruption to the patient and family.”
Jackie Gustafson
Director of IS Application Support, Nemours Children’s Hospital
