TeleTracking Again Leading the Industry

Acquisition of Real-Time Locationing Systems (RTLS) Vendor, RadarFind™, Fundamentally Changes the Possibilities of Patient Flow Automation

 

Better patient flow means better patient care.  With more than 800 hospitals using TeleTracking solutions, you can feel confident that we are committed to helping hospitals deliver the highest quality, most cost effective healthcare by improving patient flow throughout the entire care delivery system.  

However, another piece of the patient flow puzzle for many hospitals is knowing where a patient or piece of equipment is in the facility, and thus eliminate many of the non value-added steps as they progress through their busy work day.  Not to mention the ability for staff to more easily trigger workflow events, automatically, reducing time and minimizing chances for error or delay. To achieve this goal, hospitals are beginning to evaluate  a variety of  newly-emerging wireless locationing technologies called real-time locationing systems (RTLS).

TeleTracking believes that the real value of RTLS will be realized when hospitals can do more than just know where a patient or piece of equipment happens to be.  RTLS in the context of patient flow means that patient location is automatically communicated to key patient flow decision makers such as patient placement, housekeeping staff and patient transport.  When integrated with powerful patient flow automation systems such as TeleTracking’s suite of Capacity Management Solutions™, RTLS can increase the level of task automation that a hospital can realize, further improving patient flow. 

Exciting Acquisition of RadarFind - a Leader in RTLS

To that end, TeleTracking has recently acquired RadarFind™, a leading RTLS vendor to do just that.

If you are considering implementation of RTLS in your facility and have questions about how TeleTracking and RadarFind unique sensory network and deterministic tag capabilities can work together, please email us at rtlsinfo@teletracking.com, or contact your TeleTracking sales representative.
