The Pro’s and Con’s of Technology Solutions – Overcoming Perceived Disadvantages
Facial recognition, artificial intelligence, machine analytics, and other surveillance technologies can often engender negative connotations. In this webisode, Phil discusses the advantages of security and safety systems in healthcare facilities and how they can be a proactive resource for patient and staff safety.
Next Generation Digital Hospitals – The Benefits of Harvesting Data for Improved Operations
In this webisode, Phil explains how the #DigitalTwin of a hospital offers the opportunity for institutions to utilize data to make informed decisions on staffing, resources, and building improvements. Phil also describes how the data harvested from the myriad of sensors in next-generation hospitals can be combined with a digital twin to run simulations of future events and develop disaster response plans.
Healthcare Technology Vision and Innovation – Technology Briefs
Healthcare technology is continuously evolving. When appropriately integrated into new construction and major renovation projects, it can promote patient and family member engagement, improve workflow and processes, and enhance staff satisfaction. However, each new technology can bring its own set of risks, including concerns over potential capital and operating costs, the ability to deploy and support, and information security and privacy. In this fast-paced environment, a balanced, value-based perspective is essential, and the Vantage Technology, Vision, and Innovation team can provide you with that insight.
The Vantage Tech Briefs below explore some of the technologies that are impacting care (in the patient room and throughout next-generation hospitals and healthcare campuses) and enhancing the broader healing environment. Each brief provides a concise overview of each technology and its associated needs, benefits, and risks.
