Wahiawa General adopts Voalte

Voalte, a Sarasota-based technology startup, will soon have the communication platform it developed for hospital use put to the test.

The company announced yesterday that Wahiawa General Hospital, a Hawaii-based facility, would be adopting its system.

Voalte's communication system uses Apple Inc.'s iPhone to combine voice, text, and alarm functions into one device. Wahiawa General will be the first acute care hospital to rely on the Voalte system for communication between its nurses and other point of care staff.
