Managing the challenges
of coordinating diagnostic and therapeutic orders to dramatically
improve patient flow...
Spread the word:
"Care Logistics can help us change from an
organization that's vertically oriented and excels in departmental
performance, to one that has horizontal processes which will
significantly improve performance across the board and ultimately
improve the patient experience."

Diagnostic & Therapeutic Staff are provided
a display of patient orders, prioritized by the way each service
area operates. As orders are updated automatically throughout the
day, the work queue will continue to bring forward the higher
priority orders. Via a single application, patient transport
can be coordinated according to the scheduled activity for each
service area. Real time access to updated provider
information provides the service area technologists the ability to
optimize the use of their resources and predictably fulfill patient
orders.
Care Providers can review a patient's
itinerary, quickly assess patient care requirements, and can notify
service areas of any conflicts. This visibility greatly
reduces phone calls and time wasted due to lack of information or
miscommunication.
Physicians can be informed as soon as results
for patient orders are available. The moment order results
are available Order Logistics broadcasts this to the
enterprise. When working in conjunction with Rounding
Logistics, Physicians are also immediately aware of the location of
their patients and can use the wealth of information to optimize
their rounding and patient care time.
