The platform allows clinicians to virtually observe patients’ progress, set up alerts for fall risk and connect specialists for provider consultations, according to a Sept. 12 Tampa General news release.
Tampa General Chief Medical Informatics Officer Nishit Patel, MD, said that the platform will allow caregivers to continuously observe at-risk patients. The hospital also has a care command center through a partnership with GE HealthCare.
