"Healthcare providers have an inherently mobile workforce that requires on-the-go access to information," said Trevor Gruby, Chief Technology Officer at Intelligent InSites. "We are pleased to provide our healthcare customers new ways to improve and streamline their ability to deliver efficient and high-quality care."
The InSites Connect app allows healthcare personnel to view instantly, on their iPhone, the location and status of medical equipment, as well as patients and staff, eliminating non-value-added time spent searching the facility for equipment or people.
Through InSites Connect, staff can also receive time-sensitive alerts, messages, and tasks. They can then easily acknowledge that they are handling the alert or task, or they can update a task status with a simple finger tap. The iPhone voice capabilities further enhance workflow, as voice messages can be attached and sent to the appropriate personnel with more detailed information.
In addition, InSites Connect is extremely helpful in facilitating group collaboration, allowing a staff member to quickly notify a designated group of staffers about a particular event or assignment. This capability saves time and eliminates potential gaps in the communication loop.
According to Mary Jagim, RN, BSN, CEN, FAEN, and Chief Nursing Officer at Intelligent InSites "With InSites Connect, care providers can now be more productive and responsive, leading to better outcomes. By enabling medical staff to spend more time with patients, healthcare organizations will see higher satisfaction levels among their patients and employees."

In addition, Intelligent InSites' existing RTLS applications are also accessible on the Apple iPad, making it easier for users to access all aspects of the InSites solution while "on the go."
