At Patient Care Technology Systems (PCTS), we design and develop workflow automation solutions to function as a department's central workflow portal helping caregivers to anticipate and manage patient flow as efficiently as possible. By designing our systems to fulfill this purpose, we focus on delivering workflow and / or clinical intelligence, usability, ease of access and breadth of interoperability.
Caregivers benefit from the workflow and clinical intelligence of our solutions to work more efficiently and safely. Whether it is identifying the status of patient care based on the measurement of location, movement, and the interactions between patients, staff and equipment, or the automatic medication dosing recommendations based on a patient's age and weight, PCTS solutions employ advanced rules engines to support efficiency and safety in some of the most demanding health care environments.
Our design and development experience within a web-based architecture supports functional expandability, rapid development and deployment, enterprise-wide accessibility, lower total cost of ownership and simplicity of use. For most of our applications, they are as close as the nearest workstation with a web browser.
No workflow system can operate as an island. Interoperability with a facility's information and communication systems is critical so that intra-department communications and patient flow between departments is supported. PCTS workflow solutions are workflow hubs for a department linking with hospital and ancillary systems so that all relevant patient information is presented together and information can reach mobile caregivers when they need it.
Interoperability across the spectrum of real-time location systems (RTLS) is a core strength of our automatic patient and asset tracking solutions. Recognizing that no single locating technology is best-suited for every locating need, our automatic patient and asset tracking applications are compatible across the leading technologies available today including active RFID, infrared, ultrasound, ultra-wideband, Wi-Fi and ZigBee. PCTS continues to monitor and evaluate emerging technologies.
