Vicinia’s Remarkable Applications and Benefits in a Hospital

Hospitals are finely tuned engines. They have to be. If they aren’t, lives are at stake, and certain injuries can be permanent. A minute lost could be a life cost. Time is an asset in healthcare, and should not be ignored as a resource.

Most hospitals will already have something similar to what Vicinia offers. Why would we be so bold as to say that, you ask? Simple. We didn’t reinvent the wheel. We just made the wheel way better than others.

If you’ve experienced frustrations and technical barriers with other full suite productivity and mapping offerings, we’re here to take that away. That’s what we offer with the digital twin of your hospital. An easier working day. Instead of posturing further, let’s briefly explain why Vicinia is the better option than whatever you’re using. Enjoy.

Indoor Positioning Technology

The golden standard of our software is transparency. Whilst we make sure that any data we use is handled responsibly, we also mean transparency of your hospital’s assets and buildings.

What we mean is that Vicinia offers indoor mapping, for staff and guests, asset tracking, personnel cards, and aggregated location data, which can all be used for business process improvement, and security and safety. You’ll always know where everything is.

This also ties in with anti-theft measures. If anybody tries to walk out with something that’s not assigned for their use, you’ll instantly know about it, due to its location breaching the limits of your building or department.

Digitize Your Work Processes

Hospitals use a lot of printed paper, and for a lot of things, it’s still necessary. But not everything has to be paper, especially when it comes to your working process.

A feature of Vicinia, called Vibe, can be used by staff to receive notifications of news and events, based on their department, and to stay updated with the latest information. You can find more about our Vibe Online Community Software here, but in summary, Vibe can be utilized by staff to make their work easier, and be more effective.

To add to productivity, Vicinia’s application doesn’t just stop at Vibe. As mentioned above, it can track equipment. But it can also track where staff is, trigger alarms that are relevant to their schedule, notify everyone of any environmental conditions, and even enforce operations procedures for safety and regulatory compliance.

Using the above, an administrator will have a better understanding of the day-to-day of the hospital. Not only that but integrating the technology is astoundingly easier compared to other location-based full suite offerings. All down to better, and user-friendly, technology, on both the hardware and software side. It’s something you’ll see for yourself if you try out our demo.

Better Experience For Patients

Vicinia is not just for staff. It’s for your patients as well. One of our most highly celebrated features is digital hospital wayfinding. From which door to enter from, the exact route to walk, which path on the pavement you need to take, down to the very room you need to be in, and even the best parking lots. Vicinia gets the fine details down.

You can make Vicinia available as a custom app to download, with your hospital name branded on it. Or, you can install kiosks around the hospital for instant use by anyone, staff, and patients. A map is great, but a digital hospital wayfinding solution is always better.

Alongside an indoor map, analytics are available for hospital use. With analytics and insights, you can see heatmaps of the most visited areas, departments that are busier than others, and even staff that are overworked.

There’s a huge number of insights for you, and your staff, which bring actionable changes, in the easiest way possible.

Access Vicinia Anywhere

We’ve made a goal to make sure Vicinia is user-friendly, and accessible to everyone. It can be accessed with a smartphone, a web browser, and even with kiosks that can be placed within, and around, your hospital.

The user interface is friendly, even to those who aren’t as competent at handling tech. To make things even easier, we’ve worked on our solution to make it effective, and fast, at getting everyone who uses it the information they need.

Our solutions’ development observes known pain points, and we made sure to not replicate them with Vicinia.

Summary

Hospitals are important, and we know this. When developing Vicinia, we made sure that our solution is the best fit for healthcare.

Streamlining work processes, providing useful data, and making things easier for your patients, are just a few features that you can use to enhance the productiveness of your hospital, And much, much more.
