Introducing the Motorola MC2100 Series Terminal

December 15, 2011

From the sales floor to the backroom, the Motorola MC2100 mobile computer has what it takes to affordably automate the capture of inventory data right at the point of work. Paper-based forms that need to be transcribed and manually entered into the computer are eliminated, reducing keying errors and improving productivity— workers can handle more tasks per day.

With the value-priced MC2100, you get the features you need to get the job done. You can count on plenty of processing power, rugged design, superior ergonomics, flexible data capture options, enterprise-grade push-to-talk (PTT), plus centralized management. And support for Motorola’s RhoElements application development platform allows you to create cross-platform applications that work on different mobile computers with different operating systems.

Get a 360° bird’s eye view of your medical facility

August 31, 2010

One of the best ways to solve challenges is to take a giant step back from your problem and view it broadly from 30,000 feet—or from all angles or 360 degrees.

When you’re engulfed in the day to day operations of your medical facility, whether it’s a large city hospital or a small town clinic, you tend to focus on the here and now, simply because you need to treat patients and get the job done. But are you effectively collecting their information or storing your medical supplies? Are the nurses in your office wasting time searching for tongue depressors only to realize that your office is out of stock? Do you send a patient from your office to the lab for a blood draw but when the patient arrives at the lab, the information on his paperwork doesn’t match what is in the hospital’s system? Whether it’s during admissions, in the lab or pharmacy, or even bedside, information collection and then the process in which it is stored should be running smoothly with a consistent, accurate flow. Yet we continue to hear that this is one of the biggest challenges that healthcare facilities face today.

Our job is to help you to see your triumphs as well as your challenges from all angles, so we can see how systems and departments interconnect—or could—and ensure the greatest efficiencies and accuracy in your equipment, networks, and process. Then, we work together to create a holistic approach to creating a results-centered plan for your entire automated information and inventory management system. We recommend the best technology for the job, but we go beyond the hardware with extensive support and knowledge, making sure our solutions integrate easily into your network.

Patient wristbands are the critical link to patient safety

June 3, 2010

We see them all the time on patients’ wrists in the hospital—the little plastic bracelet with some sort of coding or writing on it, typically with the patient’s last name, a first name, and then a bunch of jargon that only a medical person or a computer can understand.
But have you ever looked closely at many of these wristbands? The ink is fading, sometimes the patient’s name is smudged and the information is hard to read. What would happen to that patient during a time of critical need, when accessing the patient’s vital stats and diagnosis was the difference between life and death? This can happen if you’re not employing the best technology to not only produce the wristbands from the onset, but to also make sure that the information within the bar code on the wristband successfully connects to your overall medical records department or patient information system. Creating a clear, legible wristband requires the ability to fit the important data into the bar code and the bar code onto the wristband. These are probably two of the biggest challenges facing healthcare providers today when it comes to wristbands. The solution lies in selecting a direct thermal printer that optimizes the print quality specifically for wristbands and automates as much as possible, including changing wristband size and the amount of information printed onto the wristband. Check out Zebra Technologies’ HC100 Patient I.D. Solution, which uses the industry’s only antimicrobial-coated wristbands. This printer and the Z-Bands may just be the solution you need.
