VISion
helps protect patients and staff by monitoring movement of
patients, staff, visitors and equipment in real-time so that
you can instantly detect their whereabouts and analyze historical
movement.
Patient & Staff Safety
Call
for Assistance
The Personnel Alert Badge allows
patients and staff to call for assistance from any tracked
location. This feature has proven useful in overflow situations,
when patients are away from their beds, patients need immediate
assistance in a corridor or bathroom and when nurses are dealing
with problematic patients or simply need an extra hand.
Infection
Control
VISion monitors and records the movement of patients, staff,
visitors and equipment in real-time so that you can instantly
detect their whereabouts. Based on interactions, late discovery
of infections can be investigated, cross-contamination can
be tracked and those having had contact with known contamination
can easily be recalled, thereby enabling you to track the
spread of contagions.
Confidential
Patient Information
Versus’ Authentication Manager makes sensitive patient
information available only to those with permission to view
it and Screen Lock automatically activates a screen saver
when there is no authorized badge present at a computer workstation.
By making a patient’s current location available to
those who need it when and where it’s needed (PCs, pagers,
phones, etc.), VISion eliminates the need for central white
boards and meets HIPAA privacy standards.
In
Relation to Equipment
Asset tracking with VISion enables
healthcare facilities to instantly know the location of equipment,
monitor thresholds, ensure proper equipment maintenance and
receive alerts regarding equipment failure.
Immediate
Need Locating
Put simply: Patient safety improves with the ability to immediately
locate equipment, especially life-saving apparatuses like
crash carts.
Maintenance
& Record Keeping
VISion helps hospitals find equipment due for maintenance,
testing or inspection and maintains a log of these details
and other interactions that can be reported on with a moment’s
notice, aiding compliance with Joint Commission standards.
VISion helps healthcare organizations manage Joint Commission
“Environment of Care” standards which include
reporting problems, failures and user errors related to medical
equipment as well as annual evaluation of the medical equipment
management plan, including objectives, performance and effectiveness.
Recalls
VISion allows facilities to search for tagged equipment based
on specific or general criteria and instantly provides the
current or last known location, allowing you to quickly identify
the affected equipment and get it away from patients.
