To maintain social distancing, you not only have to manage how many patients are in the building, you also have to track patient traffic, safe capacity management, and patient transitions between specific clinical areas. Automation can provide real-time visibility into how many patients are in the building, in each treatment area and how transitions are occurring from one area to another. This can not only result in staff efficiency and effectiveness, it can allow your clinic to easily follow any regulatory regulations including government guidelines, or regulations regarding facility patient capacity.
Managing ambulatory capacity manually was already difficult before the pandemic, and is significantly more challenging now. Manually trying to manage this increase in complexity will require considerably more administrative resources and could result in suboptimal clinic capacity utilization.
Automating safe COVID-19 patient flow, patient engagement & education, and patient capacity management that includes EMR integration can keep patients safe and optimize your clinic’s ambulatory capacity in a matter of weeks.
