Location Tracking
over Wireless LAN in Healthcare
Standard Wi-Fi wireless networks can be used to accurately locate and
track valuable assets such as equipment or people using small RFID tags
or any 802.11-enabled wireless device, such as laptops, PDAs, phones or
barcode scanners. By leveraging standards-based wireless networks,
location visibility is achieved, improving productivity and efficiency.
Wi-Fi location tracking solves pressing business problems in healthcare,
reducing the high costs of misplaced or underutilized medical equipment,
eliminating the problems associated with unknown staff and patient location
and
increasing patient throughput and safety.
Because this solution is based on familiar Wi-Fi networking standards,
it can be added to your existing network at
a low cost and with minimal effort.
