title: Should your hospital implement wireless solutions?
abstract: A standards-based wireless patient monitoring technology can lead to significant improvements in productivity and workflow, provide the potential for reduced errors, and decrease the costs of patient care. A properly implemented wireless patient monitoring system can provide caregivers with increased access to vital patient information at all times. This will help health care institutions build a real-time care process, provide a continuous patient record across the continuum of care, and improve outcomes by creating an environment where clinicians can make evidence-based decisions.
