Avery Dennison, Trimble delivers ThingMagic powered RFID systems for hospitals
Avery Dennison Healthcare Provider Solutions and Trimble are working together to deliver ThingMagic powered passive RFID-based systems to hospitals.
As part of the joint effort, Avery will leverage Trimble’s ThingMagic Mercury6 and Astra ultra-high frequency reader platforms to improve key processes for increased patient safety and satisfaction and reduce costs.
The passive technology is scalable and reliable, which enables hospitals to track a wide-range of objects and people moving through the hospital, including equipment, consumables, specimens, documents, patients and employees.
Key visibility and reporting capabilities of the system include real-time asset/personnel identification and location, asset/personnel history, zone/area contents, zone/area history, notifications and alerts, and integration with computerized maintenance management (CMMS), accounting and ERP systems.
