After a lengthy “pandemic pause,” many healthcare organizations are restarting their clinical communication projects in an effort to increase efficiency and improve patient care. Clinical communication and collaboration solutions streamline and improve interactions among healthcare providers, patients and caregivers. While these solutions hold great potential, it’s crucial for clinical and IT leaders to align their strategic goals with the technological capabilities.
The most successful deployments of CC&C tools address the essential needs of a diverse group of organizational stakeholders. For instance, IT leaders are understandably concerned with security, supportability and resiliency, while clinical teams prioritize usability and interoperability. In many cases there are simply too many ways to communicate within a healthcare facility, and this creates challenges.
Participating in CDW’s Clinical Mobility Workshop can help IT and clinical leaders create a detailed plan for integrating mobile technologies into their operations. This includes an examination of people, process and technologies to better understand their current and desired future state.
