Sainte-Justine Hospital will become the first French speaking hospital in Quebec and the first French-language hospital in Canada to use the wireless, hand-free devices from Vocera Communications Technology. The French-language version of this technology was introduced in 2007.
The new communications system will allow for instant communication through lightweight, wearable, voice-activated badges. The devices can also relay text messages and alerts.
The groups said the communicator, developed by Vocera Communications Inc. and implemented by IBM, can increase staff productivity, save time and improve patient care response times.
"Patient care for our young patients is our priority and our organization is continually looking for ways to increase the time spent at the patient's bedside," said Dr. Michel Duval, Chief of the Hematology/Oncology department at Sainte-Justine. "The results of the initial deployment phase for this technology are promising and may allow us to roll it out to other Sainte-Justine departments. In the future, this technology will be linked to vital sign and alert monitoring systems, so that medical staff will be able to monitor patients at their bedsides or remotely. Vocera was implemented at Sainte-Justine Hospital thanks to the generous donation of Marc and Tracey Bibeau, who raised the funds during the 'Golf Legends for Children' event, which featured internationally-renowned golf players Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player."
IBM Canada is the exclusive distributor-integrator of the French-language version of the Vocera
