Sarasota, Fla.-based Mount Sinai Medical Center partnered with Voalte to advance care coordination and communication via the use of smartphones.
The hospital implemented the Voalte Platform, which integrates Apple iPhones with multiple alarm sources and the Epic EMR. The platform implementation will include Voalte One on shared smartphones for nurses, Voalte Me for physicians and others using personal smartphones outside the hospital and the Voalte Messenger web client for unit coordinators and other desk-based staff.
Additionally, the platform integrates with Rauland Responder 5 nurse call, physiological monitor alerts and patient information in the EMR via Connexall middleware.
"After an extensive review, we chose Voalte Platform as the foundation for communication across our nine geographically dispersed locations to ensure that care teams inside and outside the hospital can access and exchange information securely, and collaborate efficiently on patient care," said Mount Sinai Medical Center CIO Tom Gillette.
