WHAT IS SMART HOSPITAL?

A smart hospital is a hospital that operates based on optimized and automated processes in an IT – Communication environment consisting of interconnected machine tools, especially based on the Internet of Things (Internet of Things). IoT), to improve existing patient care processes and introduce new effective methods.

Along with the development of IoT technology, today’s hospitals are increasingly demanding on operational efficiency, safety and patient satisfaction. Requirements for smart hospitals today:

• Improve safety, patient satisfaction and operational efficiency.
• Reduce energy consumption in the healthcare facility and restore budget balance without impacting patient care
• Reduce the number and duration of outages in hospitals with IoT solutions for the medical industry.
• Integrate your clinical and infrastructure for energy savings with innovative healthcare solutions.

To ensure that requirement, smart hospitals must include the following integrated solutions:

• BMS building management system: monitoring and controlling the electromechanical system in the hospital
• Operating room monitoring system, clean room control
• Energy management system: monitor power quality, harmonics, voltage drop, stability of the power supply system, diagnose and report problems. Measure and monitor energy consumption, towards the goal of a green hospital
• Intelligent lighting control system: ensure light intensity in different areas, save energy
• Access management system: monitoring, accessing and decentralizing access to different areas
• Smart CCTV security system with FaceID: monitoring blacklist, monitoring incidents, abnormal activities with AI technology
• Hospital information infrastructure: information security and stable and continuous information retrieval, operation, monitoring and remote treatment
• iBMS integration system: integration of Healthcare facility systems, HIS patient management system, RTLS real-time positioning system, gas distribution system, Nurse call system, queuing system… Interface General operation and management on 1 platform, saving human costs, improving the efficiency of medical examination and treatment

Remote operation

Facility management in medical buildings faces a daunting task – ensuring smooth operation at maximum capacity, or with low usage – while maintaining employee safety. . The challenge is constantly adapting to new obstacles, changing operational priorities, reducing facility staff, and reducing operating budgets. With digitized resource and building management systems, there are tools to increase service capacity remotely, help control costs, and stay operational when resources are low.

Power stability

The availability of power is the most fundamental factor in equipment operation and the hospital’s most important ability to achieve its mission. Maintaining clean, high-quality power is essential to ensuring sensitive medical equipment is in good working order at all times. Patient safety and operational continuity depend on this – 24/7. Providing safe power to life-saving devices is paramount

Network security

With an aging population, hospital infrastructure is under increasing pressure while facing the challenge of providing better quality of care. The IoT revolution can help improve the reliability and comfort of a hospital’s electrical and environmental systems, and make it more efficient, helping to control costs. While there are potential cybersecurity risks associated with digital IoT systems, the benefits outweigh the risks. Hospitals are still required to manage an IoT cybersecurity program to ensure their devices and infrastructure are cyber-secured and protected.

Compliance and risk reduction

With different enforcement agencies applying a variety of regulations and guidelines, healthcare compliance is incredibly complex. However, compliance regulations protect patients and hospital staff. They help to reduce the risk of unsafety of buildings due to poor design, layout, maintenance or operation.

Property protection

Facility staff must maintain operational excellence so that the clinical team can continue to deliver day-to-day intensive care. But a reactive approach to asset performance management exposes hospitals and clinicians to important risks and uncertainties. Digitization drives real-time, data-driven decisions through predictive analytics, and while proactive maintenance optimizes asset availability and performance, keeping your operations efficient more and profitable. Because in the field of health care, prevention is better than cure.
