Enhancing Patient Safety & Efficiency with Advanced Identification Solutions
Ensuring accurate patient identification is crucial for delivering safe and effective healthcare. Identihealth offers a comprehensive solution that enhances patient safety by enabling on-demand printing of patient wristbands and labels directly at the point of care.
Key Features of Identihealth:
Smart Clinical Label Printer: Equipped with an integrated scanner, this specialized printer can read and replicate existing wristbands, allowing for quick reprinting without accessing the central admitting system or using a PC.
Distributed Printing Network: Facilitates the distribution of printing capabilities throughout the healthcare facility, enabling medical professionals to generate necessary labels promptly, thereby reducing delays and potential errors.
Customizable and EMR-Compatible Software: Seamlessly integrates with existing Electronic Medical Records (EMR) systems, ensuring that patient information is consistently accurate and up-to-date across all platforms.
By implementing Identihealth, healthcare providers can significantly reduce the risk of misidentification, enhance operational efficiency, and maintain compliance with patient safety standards.
Identihealth is the flexible patient identification system for today’s healthcare providers. Combining innovative Zebra-brand hardware with customized, EMR-compatible software, Identihealth provides a comprehensive, GS1 compliant solution for on-demand patient wristband printing.
In even the smallest of medical facilities, patients are often being moved from floor-to-floor, doctor-to-doctor, or even building-to-building. Mistakes can happen to even the most careful caregiver; but the risks drastically increase every time a patient’s medication, diagnosis, or location changes. By ensuring accurate, up-to-the-minute patient identification and chart labeling, Identihealth empowers the caregiver to print updated labels when and where they need them, offering speed and convenience while still protecting the patient.
Built to meet each hospital’s specific needs and optimize already-existing workflow, Identihealth fully conforms to patient safety standards without sacrificing efficiency. The system features our “smart” Clinical Label Printer, a specialized wristband printer with an attached scanner to read and copy already-existing wristbands. Our printer distributes printing throughout the health network, giving medical professionals the ability to recreate labels quickly without accessing their admitting system or even having to use a PC. Duplicate labels can print directly from the Clinical Label Printer simply by scanning an existing label and inputting the desired quantity. When networked, these printers can be used to produce new labels as soon as a status change occurs.
The Identihealth System even includes a work-around for system downtime, as patients still require processing even when admitting systems are unavailable. Patient data can be collected in the interim, and merged with previously-stored data or printed up in a report so that the patient can be admitted once the software is back on-line.
