Most people focus on the people when it comes to a healthcare facility. After all, there are doctors, nurses, and staff all taking care of people. That’s the whole premise of a hospital, doctor’s office, and senior living facility. Yet behind people is the technology that supports their jobs immensely, allowing them to provide the best possible patient care.

Symtech Solutions has been providing life safety communication and rapid response solutions to healthcare facilities since 1982. Our mission is to help you improve and maximize technology so that you can focus more of your efforts on your patients. We offer a plethora of healthcare systems to help you with your daily operational needs, including digital whiteboards, temperature sensing kiosks, nurse call systems, and infection control solutions. Below, we’ll go over some of the technology you should incorporate into your facility in order to improve your workflow. Contact us to get started today!

RTLS

RTLS, or real-time locating systems, are employed to track people and/or objects without a facility. For healthcare workers, this is most often machines. If you think of a large hospital, they have hundreds of machines they need to keep track of, and these machines could literally be in any room of the entire hospital. Trying to track down a machine by going from room to room is not very efficient and can even impact patient care if a machine is needed urgently. Simply by employing RTLS technology, you will know where every piece of equipment is located instantly, improving workflow immensely. Symtech Solutions can help your healthcare facility design and implement a real-time locating system that works for your needs. Call to learn more today.

Digital Whiteboards

Hospital digital whiteboards take the place of the traditional whiteboard. These electronic displays can be integrated with electronic healthcare systems in order to offer up accurate and up-to-date reports about the status of patients. Previously, a nurse coming on shift would have to read the handwritten notes (admittedly, this task was hard to do). They may have to get clarity about the notes from someone, which takes time. Instead, with a digital whiteboard, nurses, doctors, and staff can easily read the status of the patient and provide exceptional patient care. Symtech Solutions brings you the best in digital whiteboard technology to make your workflow easier. Call to get started today.

Nurse Call/Emergency Call

Nurse call systems have done more to help improve workflow than almost any other life safety communication system. First, it has allowed patients to call for nurses easily with just the simple press of a button. This helps to eliminate some of the rounds nurses make, especially at night when patients are generally sleeping. Nurses can respond immediately to a need, and they know exactly which patient is in need. Your staff will have access to the best reports, summing up your calls and responses. Plus, your staff will have peace of mind knowing that their patients can take the initiative. Symtech Solutions offers the best in nurse call and wireless nurse call systems from Jeron. We can design, implement, and service your system. Give us a call today.

Overhead Paging

Paging systems have the ability to alert a lot of people in a very short amount of time. This is not only important in emergency situations, but it’s nice to have for staff meetings and important general safety announcements for those entering your healthcare facility. By being able to alert many people to an announcement, you save a lot of staff time, effort, and energy instead of having them go from room to room making the announcement. You can also have targeted messaging as well, which can be conveyed to certain areas of your healthcare facility. This helps to contribute to everyone’s improved workflow as everyone inevitably stops and listens. Symtech Solutions offers overhead paging systems for your nursing home, assisted living facility, or hospital. Call today!

Public address and overhead paging systems, nurse call, digital whiteboards, and RTLS are great communication tools that help to improve your staff’s workflow. Let’s face it, if we can all get more work done in less amount of time, everyone wins. Your staff has more time to invest in patient care and will be less stressed and less likely to experience burnout from repetitive tasks.
By having the ability to communicate important information on a continual basis in a variety of ways, you’ll take one more task off your healthcare staff’s shoulders that is probably heavy enough.

Symtech Solutions has been designing, implementing, and servicing rapid response systems for decades. When you partner with us, our team will visit your healthcare facility to get a good understanding of what you hope to accomplish, as well as gather information on the layout of your healthcare facility so we have a good grasp on the logistics of the installation process. Once we install your desired systems, we’ll train you and your staff on their operation. We are available 24/7 with any questions you may have and troubleshooting help. We offer on-site inspections and repair services as well.
