Together, Midmark RTLS and Ascom have successfully received interoperability certification for automating nurse presence within the Telligence Nurse Call system with Midmark RTLS Bridge for Ascom Unite and Ascom Connect for RTLS.
Challenge
In its mission to provide high-quality, safe patient care, a hospital’s most important asset is its nursing team. Nurses must be able to manage many tasks with ease, yet nursing teams are often short-staffed and stretched thin.
Solution
As long-standing integration partners, Midmark RTLS and Ascom aim to lighten nurse workload by using RTLS technology to streamline workflow, maximize productivity and save time, ultimately helping nurses provide the highest level of patient care. And because Midmark RTLS is the market leader in location accuracy, data reliability and cost effectiveness, a Midmark RTLS integration is the clear choice to enhance your Ascom nurse call system.
The Midmark RTLS-Ascom integration adds location intelligence to your Telligence system, enabling clinical staff to:
Communicate more effectively with custom messages using the Midmark RTLS Bridge for Ascom Messaging.
With this integration, you can send near real-time notifications from Midmark RTLS directly to any device supported by the Ascom Unite Messaging Suite to enhance staff safety. For example, when a Midmark RTLS badge button is pressed, a Staff Assist notification shows who needs assistance and where they are, so help can be sent quickly.
“Rather than documenting when a button was pressed, which might be longer than the actual response time, [the RTLS] allows us to document the exact moment the nurse attended to the patient.”
