EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT AGGRESSION: INFORMATION AND TRACKING TO REDUCE PATIENT AGGRESSIVENESS

TapMyLife’s Emergency Department and Staff Safety module focuses on these fundamental aspects that create challenges in the ED area through an advanced dedicated platform: flow monitoring, stretcher tracking, staff safety, and communication with relatives. The data collected over these years of activity show that the introduction of safety and traceability systems in the Emergency Department brings significant advantages in terms of efficiency, effectiveness, and safety for the department. It offers families a dedicated caregiver app to follow their loved one’s journey with information viewable on smartphones or dedicated panels.

RSA: IN THE NEW CONNECTIONS, THE SOUL OF CARE

Data indicate that by 2050, the elderly population will double, increasing from 23% to 32% of the total population, making a rethink of the care sector essential as it faces new challenges. At this stage, technology can truly help: just consider what lockdown would have been like without video calls, WhatsApp, and e-commerce. For a senior residence, a variety of solutions are needed, tailored to the specific needs of residents and based on their immediate requirements. Thus, monitoring, localization, and clinical care are certainly necessary, but every application must primarily be designed to safeguard connections, as this is the true essence of good care.

ASSET TRACKING SAVES 15% IN HEALTHCARE

Currently, the rate of ‘untraceable’ assets in healthcare facilities of all kinds (from hospitals to nursing homes) is estimated to be about 15% of the total. This translates into several thousand euros lost by each facility annually due to the lack of asset optimization. How can this problem be solved with sustainable investments that ensure a high ROI? Essentially, how can assets be tracked in real-time, wherever they are located?

TapMyLife addresses this need with a simple, economical, and innovative infrastructure that works in both open and closed environments, overcoming all the limitations of RFID solutions (characterized by low reliability and high infrastructure costs) and GPS (which does not work indoors).

Reducing Costs and Increasing Management Efficiency in Healthcare? With ‘Tracking Assets,’ It’s Possible

Currently, statistics show that the rate of “untraceable” devices in hospitals and nursing homes is estimated at around 10-15% of the total. This is a high rate that leads to managerial inefficiencies and the wastage of valuable resources. The Tracking Assets solution from TapMyLife’s platform reduces costs by 70% compared to RFID management and natively integrates business intelligence actions for rationalizing usage or purchasing devices.

COVID Patient Monitoring in Care Facilities

Recent reports are unfortunately highlighting an increasing number of problems arising from the lack of monitoring of COVID patients, even within protected facilities such as hospitals and nursing homes. The pandemic crisis should serve as a stimulus to equip our healthcare facilities with tools that can help manage not only the emergency but also the hoped-for return to normalcy with modern, efficient, and flexible tools. Solutions for active patient monitoring and system efficiency are areas where TapmyLife is highly specialized, enabling a crucial investment in the emergency phase and also serving as a necessary step towards the modernization of the entire care system.
