Background
In hospital operations, accurate and timely communication is imperative, and technology has long played a significant role in streamlining this effort. Until recently, this technology has been cumbersome and at times unreliable. New tablet PCs, however, are streamlining communications and operations in the Healthcare field, enabling real-time data transfer and making it more accessible – particularly important in emergency Healthcare scenarios.
Ambulance
Winmate's rugged tablet can be securely mounted inside an ambulance with a customized vehicle dock, providing ambulance route navigation and updated information from the main control center. Upon arrival at the hospital, our rugged tablet pc can be quickly dismounted from the vehicle dock to assist in transferring patient information and make the transition period quicker and smoother. These devices are capable of running Windows, and come with GPS and 3G, providing extensive communications and positioning in a tough and portable device.
It is a critical task to transfer patients to the hospital; each action requiring precise decision making and timing. Winmate's Tablet PC helps to provide better communication between the main control room and Healthcare staff, eliminating the traditional way of using magnetic status boards which could only be seen by a few staff and constantly needed updating. Integrated GPS allows efficient tracking and dispatching of Ambulances, since real-time communication and data transfer between drivers and Emergency Healthcare Dispatcher (EMD) is vital to maximizing ambulance operational efficiencies and patient safety. Detailed information about route optimization and pick up locations on the tablet allows the driver to focus on the road instead of administrative or manual tasks.
