At the foundation of every top performing institution is a culture which encourages communication in a timely, effective, and efficient manner. In similar fashion, successful technology initiatives are formed on the pillars of frictionless communication between clinical, IT, and executive teams. Vocera puts hospital organizations on a path to achieving significant and immediate results by aligning the interests of these key stakeholders.
For clinicians, Vocera provides a simple and intuitive user interface requiring minimal training, yet immediately removes countless obstacles and distractions for nurses by instantly connecting them to the individuals and information they need.
For IT leaders, the Vocera system extends investments that have been made in wireless local area networks (WLANs) and integrates with existing systems such as nurse-call, patient monitoring, or electronic bed boards to provide the last mile extension needed to deliver information to mobile medical workers. Additionally, the Vocera system's centralized software administration allows the system to be deployed in less than eight weeks.
How do you measure your organization's success in assisting healthcare providers to meet that challenge?
Vocera measures success based on our ability to help customers address their most pressing communication and workflow challenges.
At the highest level, we track impact across a broad set of areas where poor or inefficient communication has been shown to result in lost revenues, compromised patient safety, lower patient satisfaction, and high levels of staff burn out and fatigue.
Within weeks of implementing Vocera, our customers are identifying and capturing opportunities to increase top-line performance through improved patient flow, while at the same time elevating patient safety, patient satisfaction, and staff efficiency.
• 80% reduction in ED diversions

For executives, this all equals less wasted time and money, quieter patient environments, improved patient safety, allowing clinicians to spend more quality time serving patient needs.
