Symtech Solutions has launched its next-generation digital whiteboards, aiming to revolutionise the smart patient room experience.
The advanced displays replace traditional dry-erase boards and televisions, offering a modernised approach to patient care.
The digital whiteboards securely present real-time patient information in a HIPAA-compliant manner, enhancing patient engagement and care team coordination.
They integrate seamlessly with hospital electronic health records, ensuring the display of the most current information.
The integration supports improved clinical efficiency by automatically updating patient data.
The boards provide detailed patient info, including name, room number, status, and dietary restrictions, as well as care coordination details.
Symtech Solutions product specialist Zach Jakuboski said: “This is more than a display upgrade; it’s a critical evolution in patient-centred care.
“Our whiteboards give patients and families clarity, while equipping care teams with vital information at a glance, improving workflow, safety, transparency and satisfaction.”
Designed with clinical safety in mind, the digital whiteboards feature nurse call alerts, vital signs, medication details, and assistive device requirements.
They also enhance patient engagement through daily schedules, goals, pain scales, and service requests.
Video chat, live interpreters, and telehealth options facilitate family communication.
The digital whiteboards offer education and entertainment features, such as TV and streaming services, condition-specific content, relaxation videos, and weather alerts.
In addition, they provide smart room control capabilities, allowing patients to adjust lights, temperature, blinds, and privacy glass.
Symtech’s digital whiteboards are part of a broader platform that integrates various hospital technologies to improve safety and operational performance.
The platform includes nurse call systems, public address systems, infant security systems, and real-time location systems (RTLS).
