Progress Healthcare, a local hospital in South Carolina, recently
installed a nurse tracking system. This Real Time Locating System (RTLS)
from Stanley Healthcare is an expansion of the commonly known
Aeroscout, which is used for asset tracking. The goal is to understand
workflow streams and utilize the data to streamline the workflows
through a LEAN event. Data is captured from the employee badges and sent
wirelessly to a local server and then sent to an online database for
business intelligence analysis and reporting. Progress Healthcare also
sends patient monitoring information to the floor monitoring server and
then to the electronic medical record (EMR). The monitoring data is also
stripped of personal health information (PHI) and sent to the same
Internet server to correlate tracking information with each room.
Understanding staff movement is seen by leadership and management as
efficient. It is also a way to justify chargers and to validate the
level of care a patient receives. Many of the staff nurses and
assistants see it as a distraction and as another time consuming measure
that diminishes patient care. Write a 350-to-700-word summary in which
you address the following: Analyze the impact of using the Internet to
communicate consumer information. Assess the impact of organizational
research and the use of IT to collect data. Discuss the ethical
implications of clinical efficiency research with monitoring and
tracking data. Also introduction an conclusion
