Zebra understands the needs of healthcare organisations

In the mission-critical healthcare environment, delivering the very best in patient care requires doctors, nurses and other caregivers to be able to instantly reach colleagues and access a wealth of information.

Healthcare staff and administration need real-time visibility:

to make the best decisions in all areas of the healthcare facility;

to enhance patient safety;

to improve operational efficiency and;

to optimise your IT investment.

With Zebra’s end-to-end suite of solutions for healthcare, you can place ‘right here, right now’ mobile access to voice and data in the pockets of your healthcare team, providing the technology solutions they need at the point-of-care to define a new level of healthcare excellence.
Point-of-care applications:
With mobile applications and Internet of Things solutions running over a wireless network, caregivers can verify medication, access patient records, order tests, collect specimens and more – right from the patient’s bedside.
Voice communications:
Single and Dual-mode Voice-over-WLAN phones and badges and Wi-Fi-enabled nurse call systems allows nurses and physicians to easily communicate, roam throughout the facility, and respond to patient needs instantly.
Real-time patient, staff and asset tracking:
The ability to wirelessly track any patient, staff or asset increases overall efficiency. Easily locate a specialist to perform an emergency procedure, a patient who is late for a test, a wheelchair or a specialised piece of equipment for an upcoming operation.
Patient and equipment monitoring:
WLAN-enabled medical equipment allows nurses and other staff to monitor a patient’s condition and the status of sensitive equipment, such as an IV pump, all in real time – wherever they may be in the hospital.
Secure guest access:
The same wireless LAN that provides mobile voice and data access to healthcare staff can be utilised to provide guest access to the Internet without impacting critical operations or jeopardising the privacy of your data, while providing a valuable service for visiting family and friends.
