Pediatric hospital taps Patient Care Tech. for workflow automation
Patient Care Technology Systems announced that Cook Children’s Medical Center has selected the company’s Amelior Tracker system to automatically track medical equipment throughout their Ft. Worth, Texas facility.
Amelior Tracker will integrate with the CenTrak Gen2IR active RFID tag to enable the 282-bed pediatric care facility to track mobile medical equipment and increase equipment utilization, decrease the requirement to rent additional units and have more consistent preventative maintenance for increased operating performance.
Cook Children’s will also integrate the Amelior Mobile program, a proprietary Web application for use with handheld communication devices that will allow their engineers to locate equipment in real-time, without wandering around various hospital departments or wings.
With the Amelior Track solution, Cook Children’s Medical Center can scale its implementations by the entities it wishes to track, such as medical equipment, patients, and staff; purposes, including temperature monitoring, asset management, patient flow, infection control; and by the scope of hospital workflow – acute care, inpatient floors, outpatient services, enterprise-wide.
