    Hospital leaders are facing staffing pressures like we’ve never seen before. At the same time, violence against healthcare workers is on the rise.

    Our new eGuide showcases five healthcare organizations that are using Vocera solutions to ease the burden of patient care workflows and safeguard care teams against workplace violence. Read the eGuide to learn how these healthcare providers are:

    • Enabling more efficient communication and workflows for better outcomes
    • Providing healthcare workers with a discreet way to summon help in an emergency
    • Equipping staff to communicate safely hands-free, even under restrictive PPE
    • Mitigating some common sources of frustration that may escalate to conflict or workplace violence
    • Making it easy for staff to communicate with patients’ loved ones

    As role vacancies leave gaps in the care process, our solutions can play a role in bridging those gaps by enabling people to communicate effectively and the right information to flow to the right people in a timely way to improve patient safety and care quality.

    Here’s a quick view of three of the five organizations highlighted in this guide. They’re using Vocera hands-free wearable communication devices and smartphone mobile applications integrated with key clinical systems to make workflows more efficient, strengthen safety, and improve patient satisfaction.

    Major Health Partners

    Learn how Major Health Partners improved on-time starts, and door-to-decision time, and patient satisfaction with nursing and physician encounters.

    “We have eliminated so much of the wear and tear—physically and emotionally—on our care teams. No longer is the focus on running around,trying to find the right person. With Vocera, the care team is taken care of and they can focus on what they signed up to do—provide the best patient care.” – Linda Wessic, COO, CNO and Vice President at Major Health Partners

    North Valley Health Center

    Discover how North Valley Health Center strengthened safety and made workflows more efficient.

    “Because our workflows have been more efficient, patients don’t spend any unnecessary time waiting for a response from nursing staff. Our physicians are notified as soon as test results are available – they no longer need to be at a computer.” – Jon Linnell, Chief Executive Officer at North Valley Health Center

    Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre

    Find out how Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre improved healthcare workforce safety and the patient experience. (A code white is used to communicate in instances of workplace violence.)

    “The Smartbadge puts me at ease because I know help is only the push of a button away. It’s comforting to know that my teammates also have a lifeline when faced with a code white or a situation where they need assistance.” – Lori Donnelly, RN, Patient Care Manager at Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre
