NiQ Health Announces CarePlus™ integration with ClinicAll®
London, UK (PRWEB UK) 14 November 2014 -- NiQ Health “the leader in message based nurse call systems” today announced the high level interface capabilities of their CarePlus™ nurse call solution with the ClinicAll® clinic infotainment systems.
The partnership between CarePlus™ and ClinicAll® integrates nurse call on patient entertainment terminals; this allows patients to choose the most appropriate alarm and message depending on their need and acuity. The advanced functionality of CarePlus™ allows patient alarms to be transmitted through SIP protocol and shown on nurses DECT or smartphones. This new functionality improves workflow and efficiency of nurses, allowing them to prioritise patient calls dependent on the urgency and type of call communicated through the CarePlus™ and ClinicAll® integration. A call-back feature is also enabled through this integration, with caregivers able to communicate directly with patients through their infotainment terminal handset.
NiQ Health CEO-Europe Christian Testorf said, “The integration capabilities between CarePlus™ and ClinicAll® offer significant improvement to every patient’s hospital experience. The integration of nurse call on patient infotainment terminals offers advanced work flow improvements for nurses and doctors alike."
CarePlus™ ensures patient initiated calls are sent directly to the right caregiver with the right skill set. Ensuring clinical calls are sent to the right classification of clinician (Pain, Potty, Positioning) and non-clinical patient calls are sent to support services (food, drink, blanket, new appointment, discharge). The benefits of this include improved patient safety and satisfaction, with a significant return on investment. ClinicAll® Microsoft 8 software provides features enabling patients to select entertainment, information services, menu ordering or meal selection, Skype, telephone or internet.
A demonstration of the Microsoft 8 Infotainment terminal integration to CarePlus™ and the active communication path (SIP) between the DECT Spectralink 7000 handsets and the ClinicAll infotainment patient handset can be seen today at MEDICA – Hall 15, Stand A 42.
NiQ Health’s CarePlus™ significantly improves the workflow and efficiency of clinicians and caregivers while simultaneously combatting growing concerns within the healthcare environment, a demonstration of these capabilities can be viewed here. CarePlus™ can be considered “middleware in a box” integrating smartphones, paging, wireless and VOIP telephony, ward signs, large screen information boards, email, patient entertainment terminals, duress systems and Building Management Systems (BMS). CarePlus™ provides extensive reporting and Business Intelligence software capabilities providing significant workflow productivity efficiencies and improved patient safety.
