Reduce preventable patient harm

After supplying the health sector for several years with barcode labels, scanning equipment and tracking software systems we are now seeing an industry under public pressure to perform better than ever before. Hospitals are being asked to reduce preventable patient harm whilst handling increasing patient numbers with less staff.

For this reason, hospitals are looking at everything possible to help their staff. This is where barcoding and wireless tracking systems have helped to increase efficiencies and provide a better working environment for hospital staff and therefore improve their patients’ experience.

Barcode (QLD) has partnered with Ekahau OY (www.ekahau.com) from Finland to supply a wireless tracking system that is being used in US and European hospitals to locate staff, mobile assets and patients.
