Is your patient throughput the best it can be?

In today's environment, efficient patient flow management is not a novelty, it is a necessity. Knowing precisely where a particular patient is and their visit progression, coupled with knowing where to find specific pieces of equipment at any given time-all while coordinating and documenting staff workloads is important to timely and efficient patient care.

We have performed the due diligence, investigated the market, and we have a solution.
Versus Advantages™ is a clinical-grade real-time locating system (RTLS) that locates, automates and records interactions to provide situational awareness to healthcare facilities. With Versus Advantages, patient and clinical workflows are automated and data for process improvement is collected automatically. Reports on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are provided in real-time on customizable dashboards or specific parameters can be configured for custom milestone reporting, using Reports Plus.

Knowing the location of patients, staff and resources is essential to safety and efficiency. Versus provides definitive location information, but takes this a step further by coupling location information with patient information. This information is easily shared with other 3rd-party clinical information systems, allowing facilities to improve performance of their existing clinical systems with clinical automation. By capturing this information and sharing it with other systems, Versus is able to:

• Capture time together,
• Automate equipment billing,
• Automate nurse presence and call cancellation,
• Capture hand hygiene compliance.
• Advance the patient to the next stage of care,
• Help caregivers determine when it is appropriate to see a patient or review labs, and
• Automate bed management

Versus Advantages is a clinical-grade enterprise locating solution-meaning it provides continuous location coverage throughout a facility, even across multiple campuses, with unparalleled accuracy. Versus realizes that each department, each user, in fact, has different needs, so Advantages is designed with specific applications to address the intricacies encountered in the ED, OR, labs, clinics and on in-patient floors while cohesively supporting the organization's enterprise locating needs. This includes patient flow, asset management, infection control, hand hygiene compliance, bed management, reporting and integration to other systems.

How does Advantages Work?
By combining safe infrared (IR) and radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies, Versus provides precise tracking and locating of individuals and assets. Versus badges, worn by patients and staff, and tags, which are attached to hospital equipment, transmit digital IR and RFID signals to ceiling-mounted sensors. The resulting data is collected, formatted and sent via the facility intranet where it is either displayed in Versus' graphical software views or shared with the facility's existing clinical information systems (e.g. EDIS, EMR, ADT). The data is stored for historical reporting to validate the quality of care and support process improvement efforts.

With Versus Advantage, everyone benefits: physicians, nurses, assistants, managers, administrators, patients, clinical engineers, volunteers…the list goes on. Let Versus help you achieve the many locating Advantages.
