Healthcare Technology and News: Connexall Expands Operations and Re-defines Quality Healthcare


Many organizations today are challenged when they have to track, identify and respond effectively to crises that surface without prior notice. Being armed to tackle such situations is the core strength of any company. Herein then lies the power of Information Immediacy.
 
Connexall is a global market leader enabling information immediacy for healthcare, retail and hospitality organizations, and campus environments. Specializing in the healthcare sector, it has launched Connexall USA, Inc.
 
In doing so, Connexall hopes to expand the coverage of healthcare facilities in the United States, and contribute to increasing patient quality-of-care, safety and effectiveness of healthcare providers.
 
Connexall's integrated communications solutions takes care of all this and more, by optimizing delivery of care for improved patient safety, ensuring optimal satisfaction, and increasing efficiency while working with existing IT systems.The expansion would mean that the experience and talent of Connexall would now be available in U.S. also.
 
“By combining the talent base we have in the U.S. with our close proximity to strategic customers and industry players, Connexall is positioned to positively impact healthcare facilities with our best-in-class enterprise middleware solutions,” David Tavares, Connexall CEO, said.
 
John Elms, former CEO of SpectraLink, now part of Polycom has been assigned to lead the U.S.. operation, which is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. In an evolving healthcare market, Connexall is best suited to assist healthcare enterprises to improve efficiencies in key clinical areas with applications such as ER patient flow and OR workflow, plus nurse call, patient monitoring and hospital-wide building management. 
 
“Connexall is ready to respond to the needs and opportunities of the U.S. market with a dedicated team of experienced technology professionals who understand the nature of the U.S. healthcare marketplace,” Elms said.
 
It recently completed a project at New York City’s Mount Sinai Medical Center. The technology allows the world-renowned facility to improve patient response time and improve communications so events are dealt with immediately, improving quality-of-care and patient satisfaction while reducing the facility’s cost of care.
 
Since 1992, the company has built on its strengths of integrating event-driven systems with communications networks to create environments where information is immediately available to those who need to act. Connexall takes a whole-solution approach that augments technological innovation with experience in understanding and optimizing customers’ business processes and information flows.
