Sarasota-based Voalte will soon be doing business with Tampa General Hospital, one of the largest hospitals in the region.
The hospital will be replacing a patchwork of pagers and an aging phone system with the unified Voalte Platform, a statement says. The Voalte smartphone deployment is already live on several units and will be integrated site-wide at 1,011 patient beds at Tampa General Hospital.
“After an extensive review, we determined Voalte is the one vendor than can unify our multiple communication systems, tie in with biomedical devices and provide secure text messaging for our physicians on their personal smartphones,” says Dr. Peter Chang, chief medical informatics officer at Tampa General Hospital, in the statement.
With Voalte, hospital staff will be equipped with an alarm-management system and will receive immediate alerts and notifications from patient monitors. “With patient information at their fingertips, caregivers can respond quickly, request help from support staff and streamline the workflow process to provide the best possible patient care,” says Voalte founder and CEO Trey Lauderdale.
