Asset tracking in the hospital

SMART DEVICES ARE ALWAYS ON THE RADAR

Whether it’s ultrasound devices, patient monitors or beds – all smart devices and objects in the hospital automatically send their Medical Asset Tracking data to the highly secure cloud environment via a WiFi infrastructure.

  • Cloud operation by Deutsche Telekom under the highest IT security and data protection requirements according to EU law
  • Heatmap visualization via hospital staff mobile devices
  • More efficient use of time and resources and more effective processes, such as reduced legwork and shorter waiting times

OUR SOLUTION – MEDICAL ASSET TRACKING

ALL LOCATIONS IN VIEW
