Nurse Call/Emergency Call

Nurse call is a system implemented in many healthcare facilities, including nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and emergency rooms that allow patients to call for help at a touch of a button. This helps to ensure patients’ needs are being met in a timely and efficient manner. When you partner with Symtech Solutions for your nurse call systems, you can expect a plethora of data to be available at your fingertips. Our nurse call systems track many key indicators that you can use to help improve processes and individual nurse’s performances. Some of these include response times and the type of call that was replaced. It can record if rounds were being made and can record how long those took. This is crucial data that can help your healthcare staff discover bottlenecks and alleviate them in order to offer the best patient care.

RTLS

Real time location systems (RTLS) can also offer many crucial indicators to help your healthcare staff get better over time. This technology is powerful in the fact that it can automate many tasks that previously your staff had to enter manually, such as the availability of hospital beds. You can use RTLS to not only locate your equipment, but also to track when it was last disinfected and serviced. You can document hand hygiene as well by your staff, which helps to control the spread of illnesses. You can use this data to improve and automate workflow.

The RTLS system can detect interactions which helps with systems integration. RTLS technology can help alert your staff to items such as when the ICU is low on IV pumps, when rounding is overdue for patients, and when a patient needs their medication. Equipment and room utilization can be displayed in easy-to-read charts, as well as how long it takes to treat a patient. Reach out to our team to learn more today.

Digital Whiteboards

If you are looking for the ultimate in streamlining your care provider workflow, digital whiteboards are the answer. Truly, patient information is at your fingertips. When a patient is admitted, all of their health records will be auto-populated in a HIPPA-compliant manner. A patient’s schedule, prescribed medications, rounding reminders, and notes can be visible. RTLS technology can track when a care provider enters the room. You can see rounding times and how long the nurse was in the room with the patient. Last staff visits can be displayed on digital whiteboards that are placed outside the patient’s room and nurse calls are displayed outside the room as well.

Telehealth services can be used as well on digital whiteboards, allowing for contactless patient care. The staff whiteboard is placed at the nurse’s station with all of the pertinent information for all to see, including care team, call alerts, visitor status, and more. All of these facts are brought together in data reports that you can access easily and then use to make recommendations on care and improvements.

Wander Protection

With the rise of Altzeihmer’s and dementia, wandering is becoming a greater problem. Wandering is when patients in memory care wander off and become lost because they don’t remember where they were going and don’t know where they are at. Wander protection systems offered by Symtech Solutions can help hospitals, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities minimize wandering amongst their residents. This perimeter system will notify you if a resident breaches the facility so that they can be brought back to safety. This wander protection system also compiles the data of those who have wandered and much more so your staff can determine who is at highest risk of wandering and from which entryway. There is so much to consider with wander protection systems that this data can make your long-term care facility or hospital safer for your patients.

Infant Protection

It’s safe to say that a newborn is the most vulnerable in our population today. Infants need round-the-clock care because they are absolutely defenseless and cannot feed, clothe, or take care of themselves. As a new parent, the idea of someone taking your newborn from you is horrific. But it has happened in the past. Luckily, technology now allows us to protect your infant after they are born. Symtech Solutions offers an infant protection system that will keep the infants in your hospital safe from possible abduction attempts. Alarms will sound and doors will automatically lock if the device is tampered with once placed or the baby is taken outside of the perimeter. While these attempts are rare, our system will record any of these attempts for analysis and for quality checks when you test the systems. Contact Symtech Solutions today.
