Canberra Hospital is the largest public hospital in the area providing care to more than 500,000 people through a range of services including acute inpatient and day services, outpatient services, women’s and children’s services, paediatrics and pathology. The Adult Mental Health Unit (AMHU) is focused on providing a safe and supportive environment for patients with acute mental illness or disorder.
ACT Health Customer Story
해결 과제
Efficient messaging is critical to provide safe care for patients. Incidents that occur across the clinical space need to be responded to quickly. At ACT Health, smart devices were only operating as phones. And there was no emergency duress alarm that provided accurate geographic location. That meant juggling multiple devices when it was time to respond to a call.
ACT Health required an open standards solution that could be easily integrated and interconnected across locations within the existing infrastructure. ACT Health works with Spectralink smart medical devices, which are medical device certified and fit within the clinical stack around the delivery of critical alarms. The ALE solution needed to provide messaging and duress alarms as well as location-based services, triggered by the alarm button on the Spectralink device.
조치
Location services are fundamental to responding to incidents quickly. Together with messaging software, mission-critical messages are sent with unique audio and unique tones, so staff know if it’s an alarm code they need to respond to even before they take the device out of their pocket. Additionally, the command centre sees where the call is coming from (location on a floor plan map), when the call has been acknowledged and if someone is responding. Introduction of the Spectralink device also means staff only require one device.
- After a successful proof of concept (POC), the solution was adopted for duress situations at Mental Health Ward 12B
- IQ Messenger third party notification server is the engine for innovative use cases extending staff safety with Duress/Lone Worker functions – including a major hub setup at the Australian Institute of Sport
- The IQ Messenger Smart app provides paging across the hospital
