Tele-Tracking Technologies Inc. is offering a hand-held version of its clinical bed management software. The bedboardmobile system is designed to enable clinicians to manage patient beds across an enterprise using a PDA.
The application can be used on PDAs running the Palm OS or Windows Mobile operating system. It also can be implemented on a provider organization's wireless network to ensure clinicians have access to up-to-date information on bed availability, status and demand.
The system can help improve clinical staff communication about bed use, which can lead to improved bed turnover and patient flow, according to the company.
