Virginia Hospital to Deploy RadarFind
By RadarFind | December 5, 2008
Mary Washington Hospital has selected the RadarFind RTLS for tracking the location and status of its mobile medical equipment, thereby managing costs to save money on equipment purchases, improve patient care and enhance the efficiency of hospital operations.
RTLS Selection Driven by Ease of Installation, Scalability, Low Upfront Costs
The hospital, part of Fredericksburg, Va.’s MediCorp Health System, chose the RadarFind system for its flexible deployment, ability to provide precise room-level location, innovative status tags and scalability for asset and patient tracking. Unlike other RTLS solutions, RadarFind is deployed enterprise-wide, rather than in one department such as an emergency room. In addition, RadarFind’s low installation costs and its ability to operate without interfering with WiFi or other existing hospital networks were key factors in the decision.
“The RadarFind system is setting the standard for real time locating in hospitals, with non-disruptive installation, proven return-on-investment, scalability, detailed data and reports and superior customer service,” said Andy Holden, director of biomedical services for Mary Washington Hospital. “The RadarFind system will have a significant impact on Mary Washington Hospital’s mission to improve the health status of all people within our community. The data gathered by the system will be leveraged in a number of ways to help improve our hospital’s services.”
Holden is also co-chairman for the Environment of Care Council at Mary Washington and is looking forward to using the RadarFind system to track telemetry devices that wirelessly monitor vital signs. Hospitals lose track of a significant number of these small devices each year, which can translate into lost funds. Mary Washington Hospital will use the RadarFind asset location system to stop those losses.
