Hillrom
Simplifying Clinical Communication and Optimizing Surgical Efficiency

Throughout the past decade, digital technologies have been successfully altering the DNA of the healthcare industry. For instance, the proliferation of digital technology in the care delivery spectrum has been significantly shifting the focus of healthcare from a traditionally siloed to a more integrated or coordinated approach.

And today, the COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced that idea of optimized care for patients even further. Despite this understanding, industry reports suggest that, even now, not all hospitals are using digital technologies while communicating critical patient data. Healthcare facilities relying on traditional paper-based methods to coordinate and share patient data run the risk of making errors, jeopardizing patient safety. Thus, healthcare providers need simple, secure, and connected solutions that streamline information sharing to help clinicians make more informed decisions and enhance care quality.

Enter Hillrom, a leading global medical technology company. Hillrom offers the Voalte platform, a unified care communications solution. The Voalte platform provides a powerful communication foundation that connects clinicians with each other as well as patients. Whether working in a hospital, a support department, an ambulatory clinic, or an offsite medical practice, every member of the care team can depend on Voalte Platform for the tools they need to communicate efficiently for the best possible patient care. Voalte Platform simplifies nurse and physician communication, and equips a hospital’s IT team with the tools to manage, analyze, and integrate mobile health technologies throughout their organization. By incorporating voice calls, securing text messages, and creating alarms and alerts, Voalte Platform ensures quick delivery of information to the right person. “It starts with cutting through the complexity in the care delivery spectrum and focusing on the human side of healthcare,” says John P. Groetelaars, president and CEO of Hillrom.

It is also important to note that Hillrom offers a host of integrated surgical solutions. From surgical tables designed for easy setup and precise positioning and to lights that eliminate shadows, Hillrom’s surgical solutions help care teams deliver great patient outcomes. These solutions improve workflows and enable peak procedural performance for the surgical staff.

Additionally, these solutions work seamlessly with other patient monitoring components for safer, more productive, and efficient clinical environments.

Hillrom takes its surgical solutions a step further with robotic operation rooms. In an exclusive partnership with Intuitive, a global technology leader in minimally invasive care and robotic-assisted surgery, Hillrom has created the TS7000dV surgical table. The TS7000dV can connect with a surgical robot to help surgeons enhance workflow, improve productivity, refine visualization, and enrich data feedback. Equipped with integrated table motion, the TS7000dV and the surgical robot can work together to provide patient positioning adjustments. This innovation delivers better surgical site access, visibility, and even intraoperative patient-supine relief during longer cases.

Not only does Hillrom offer medical equipment, but it also provides its maintenance and repair services. Healthcare providers can tap into Hillrom’s network of 1,000+ technicians for round-the-clock support. The skilled technicians maximize the life of the products and provide a safe environment that complies with local and national accreditations and regulations.

By continuously advancing and integrating its solutions, Hillrom enables clinicians to be vitally connected to their patients. This means more accurate diagnoses, earlier intervention, and faster recovery times. Such remarkable solutions make Hillrom a market leader in the healthcare space, but the key factor that sets them apart is its team of experts with a continued focus on developing the most innovative solutions across a broad range of care settings. With its presence in more than 100 countries, Hillrom is committed to improving outcomes for patients and their caregivers.
