Implementing Digital Paper Communication Boards in a Boston Hospital: a Case Study
What You'll Learn:
The need to improve the patient and clinician experience is driving hospitals’ digitization efforts in order to enhance communication, improve workflow efficiency, and reduce medical errors. Real-time data automated from an EMR/EHR system onto a digital display can keep everyone informed, but many hospitals are facing two challenges: complex and costly installation, and the balance of making information available and preventing light pollution from the display from affecting patients. Digital Paper displays from E Ink can address all of these issues, and more. Join, followed by a panel discussion.
Attend this webinar with E Ink, MDM and Brigham Women’s Hospital as they present a case study on how Digital Paper Communication Boards can help hospitals to bridge the gap and bring their digitization into the 21st century.
Join us to:
- Learn how a major hospital addressed their pain points through Digital Paper
- See how easy it is to deploy Digital Paper in your facility – in some cases, without wires!
- Understand how you can connect Digital Paper to your EHR/EMR systems
- Discover how Digital Paper displays prevent light pollution, giving your patients more needed rest
