Torrence Sound: Enhancing Patient Safety with Live Video Monitoring Solutions
In the insightful article “Protecting patients with live video monitoring and analytics” from Modern Healthcare, the company addresses the critical need for patient safety amidst the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing the role of live video monitoring in healthcare facilities.
With the rapid spread of COVID-19, hospitals and healthcare facilities faced the urgent task of mitigating transmission within their environments. As part of their response, many facilities implemented measures to reduce the number of individuals allowed in various locations, resulting in patients being left alone in their rooms. To address this isolation and enhance patient care, healthcare facilities turned to video cameras for monitoring and communication purposes.
As hospitals reflect on their response to the pandemic, they recognize the potential of leveraging video cameras not only for patient care but also for improving overall clinical operations and increasing ROI. While cameras have traditionally been part of physical security systems in hospitals, their success in enhancing patient care during COVID-19 has prompted healthcare facilities to explore their potential for supporting clinical operations.
To ensure patient privacy and compliance with HIPAA regulations, it’s crucial to implement a robust video management system (VMS). The Wisenet WAVE VMS from Hanwha Techwin emerges as a preferred option due to its ability to deploy as a standalone clinical video solution without recording, thus safeguarding patient privacy effectively.
Live video monitoring solutions offer healthcare facilities a comprehensive approach to patient safety and clinical operations enhancement. By leveraging advanced technology and tailored solutions, these aim to elevate patient care standards in healthcare environments.
