Centralized Asset Distribution- Managing Mobile Assets at the System Level

Wednesday, February 22, 11:45 am – 12:05 pm

When evaluating mobile medical assets, the tendency is to evaluate facility-level utilization. In the short run the facility may still be left with excess inventory sitting in the closets. Unless as part of a broader RTLS deployment, this excess actually serves as a resource, which given the right processes can be leveraged to address fluctuations in demand across multiple facilitites.

Emerging Trends in Clinical Mobility

Wednesday, February 22, 2:45 pm – 3:05 pm

INTEROPERABILITY: It is not just talk; healthcare demands it in their mission-critical environment today. From staff communication to asset tracking, clinical mobility is at the heart of interoperable solutions across the healthcare system. How are innovative facilities adopting technologies to address clinical mobility, and what are some of the obstacles they encounter such as BYOD, device management and security? Motorola Solutions provides insight on these trends and how decision makers should be approaching interoperability and mobility as part of their strategic plan to reduce errors and improve efficiencies across the healthcare system, especially as it relates to point of care (POC) across the continuum of care.
