III. Workflow & Reporting

Real Time Location Solution (RTLS) Workflow Engine

Reporting

At first, you'll note immediate gains from accurate locating. You'll spend less time searching for equipment and colleagues. You'll know patient-to-staff ratios. You'll know when beds become available and you can easily report on room turnover times.

As the system matures, you'll begin to think, "Wow, our throughput times have really improved. I wonder what happens if we try this?" and you'll try something new.
Integration
We play nicely with others...

You need an integrated approach to healthcare; disparate systems just aren't going to cut it - especially when they could be benefiting from real-time, automated updates.

Beyond simple tracking, we can enable clinical workflow implementation with your existing systems. Of course, we're happy to be the face you see, but our goal is to make healthcare safer and more efficient, so we are willing and readily able to automate whatever systems you choose, including the systems you are already accustomed to using.

Hand Hygiene and Infection Control

Compliance with proper hand hygiene protocols is the single most important deterrent to hospital-acquired infections, but this critical step is overlooked 65% of the time.

If your facility is like most, you rely on quarterly observation periods, expensive hand hygiene audits or the 'secret shopper' approach just to compile data that in some way reflects hand hygiene compliance rates.

The Versus solution is to monitor actual hand hygiene compliance events in real-time all day, every day, and relate it to patient care. In this way, you can:
  • Determine exactly how often hand washing is taking place
  • Determine if the time between hand washing and patient care is appropriate
  • Direct additional education/improvement efforts
  • Conduct root-cause analysis
Advanced facilities can alert caregivers to non-compliant status prior to patient care, offering caregivers the opportunity to self-correct.

Infection Control has never been more important.

By analyzing the movement of people or items and their interactions, you can track potential contagion pathways to prevent the spread of infection.

Late discovery of infections can be investigated, cross-contamination can be tracked and those who come into contact with known contamination can easily be identified for notification and treatment, if necessary.
Operating Rooms

Effectively manage your OR services to boost profitability. Your OR is likely the most profitable area of the hospital - but also the most dependent on ensuring that the right people, patients and equipment are in the right place at the right time.

A single roadblock or emergency surgery early in the day can throw a whole day's schedule off - affecting multiple caregivers, departments and patients. Versus helps prevent roadblocks by ensuring that the patient's status is communicated to all caregivers in real-time.

Versus Advantages allows you to keep track of patient, staff and equipment locations and their various interactions. Doing so allows for more accurate billing according to time with patient, time in surgery and equipment used. It also helps staff to identify equipment locations so that they can prep surgery suites more quickly.

For scheduling and billing purposes, you can utilize Advantages reports to analyze the impact of emergency surgeries, OR profitability to procedure length or utilization rates by surgeon. From relocating patient charts in response to room rescheduling to increasing the number of cases per day, Versus helps you manage your OR more efficiently.
Staff Locating

The ability to quickly locate staff is essential to patient safety, staff safety, patient flow and efficient operations.

You can create an environment where interruptions are minimized and communication is maximized by helping staff to find the resources they need - including their fellow staff members - in a timely manner, without phone calls and walking surveys.

Real-time staff locating helps keep staff focused on patient care and workflow tasks that must be completed in order to advance the patient to the next stage of care. Patient visits progress more efficiently when staff are easily located to answer simple questions that might otherwise be forgotten or overlooked.

Knowing where your fellow staff members are will also help you to quickly provide support if they indicate a need for assistance.
