Improving care giver and patient experience through mobility

How digital mobility enables care givers to deliver improved patient care and outcomes, 同时也改善了患者的整体体验.

Why mobility is important for healthcare providers, care givers and patients?

Digital mobility is becoming the way that healthcare organizations can decisively improve patient care pathways, 满足病人和访客的期望, provide security, 保持服务的简单和成本效益. Achieving these objectives will define the experience that hospitals, 诊所和辅助生活设施, 为医疗保健专业人员和患者提供服务.

Better care

Mobility allows clinicians to achieve higher standards of care, for example, by securely accessing electronic health/medical (EHR/EMR) records, 床边的4K成像和测试结果, instead of having to leave a patient and log into a desktop some distance away.

Similarly, innovations such as monitoring devices embedded in wristbands make it possible for more patients to recover while at home, as doctors and care givers can track their progress remotely using real-time data. This reduces hospital costs and frees up beds for more urgent cases.

Achieving these advantages will never happen without the foundation of a Wi-Fi solution equipped with the strength and intelligence to support the demands of digitalization and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Higher expectations

Patients (not to mention their visitors and clinicians) represent a cross section of modern society. 这意味着他们期待即时, trouble-free access to everything online – no matter where they are or what they’re doing. A healthcare facility is no exception and people will want: online TV and videos, the ability to chat, instant message, interact with social media and perhaps even work using their smartphones, 平板电脑和其他移动设备. 要满足这些期望，你就必须提供超能力, high-speed connections, 新的带宽水平和改进的覆盖范围.

More robust security

Now more than ever, healthcare organizations in a digital world face a cybersecurity threat where data breaches can lead to legal actions and large regulatory fines, 同时也严重损害了组织的声誉. It makes sense to safeguard digital workflows and patient data across the LAN/WLAN network. 这是最有效的方法? Building security into the architecture of the Wi-Fi network itself, rather than relying solely on the legacy approach of defense at the perimeter. Healthcare organizations can’t afford to ignore the commercial imperatives of security, 简单和成本效益. With that in mind, 他们应该寻找价格合理的Wi-Fi解决方案, with a low TCO, and a proven capability for automatic onboarding of smart and IoT (Internet of Things) devices to support connected healthcare services. Wi-Fi系统必须保持移动临床医生的连接, 确保智能系统在线, and eliminate the need for investment in the maintenance of old technology.

So how does ALE help the healthcare industry achieve this?

阿尔卡特朗讯全接入恒星无线局域网

Modern healthcare organizations need superior Wi-Fi performance to help them meet today’s clinical practices. By 2022, 97%的床边护士, 98 percent of physicians, 96 percent of pharmacists and 94 percent of emergency room nurses will be utilizing mobile devices¹. 70 percent of healthcare providers use mobile devices to access electronic medical records² and 7.目前使用了100万台家庭健康监测设备³.

Mobile technology is becoming the way healthcare organizations:

• 无论何时何地，提供医疗保健 – from secure access to electronic health/medical (EHR/EMR) records and test results at the bedside to wristband monitoring devices for real-time tracking of patient progress.

• 满足病人和访客的期望 – with high-speed Wi-Fi, 使用首选设备改善覆盖和访问, while ensuring there’s no impact on essential services or confidential data.

• 保护医疗机构 –with security built-in to protect digital workflows and patient data against costly, 破坏性数据泄露和网络攻击.

• Lower complexity and cost – enable simplified workflows that provide tangible benefits with a lower TCO.
