Hospital Products Australia and Zebra Technologies Real Time Location Services

Click2Contact

Hospital Products Australia (HPA) and Zebra Technologies have partnered to provide Real Time Location Services (RTLS), a solution that helps identify, track, locate and monitor every patient, staff and asset in an organisation. RTLS provides real-time data into the health and whereabouts of key assets and reduces costs of physical asset losses.

Sensors and tags are placed on critical medical assets and devices: workstations on wheels, medical tablets, patient blood bags, IV pumps, heart monitors, beds, wheelchairs and anything that influences patient outcomes. Discreet beacons and RFID readers automatically note the location of the asset or device as it moves — providing real-time visibility into every item.

Staff get instant asset locations using HPA’s cloud-based customer service portal RightNow and in-depth reports are generated through Zebra’s Savanna software. The two layers of access give staff visibility to all the critical supplies they need, freeing up more time to focus on patient care. Management can access utilisation reports, which will help to reduce unnecessary purchase of extra inventory, while also allowing them to easily monitor trends and order before supplies fall below critical levels.
