CareView Communications Executes Agreement with New Hospital in Pensacola, FL

CareView Communications, Inc. an information technology provider to the healthcare industry, announced the signing of an agreement with a health system building a new campus in Pensacola, FL. The new campus includes a new acute care hospital and behavioral health unit with room for future expansion.

The agreement calls for the installation of the CareView Patient Safety System®, which facilitates continuous remote patient monitoring for patients who may be at risk of harm due to falls, behavioral issues, or suicidal ideation. The CareView solution leverages an in-room camera with audio capabilities and patented Virtual Bed Rails® and Virtual Chair Rails® technologies to improve patient safety. The Virtual Rails use machine learning to identify when the patient’s movement indicates a fall may be imminent, and subsequently alerts the Safety Technician. Pre-recorded messages or 2-way audio allow for direct communication with the patient. The System offers a considerable impact on sitter reduction and overall patient safety.
