Hospitals with Wi-fi give them a distinct advantage in managing their operations. With the help of Wi-Fi all activities in hospital will become wire free. With better connectivity, hospitals can dispense off their services in a more effective way.

With the help of wrist bands, we help improve patient's safety and streamline solutions. It provides for better patient identification. All the information regarding the patient’s ailments, tests to be conducted etc. are fed into the band. The doctor can access this information as and when he desires with the help of his PDA. Medication verification applications, running on a handheld wireless mobile computer, help eliminate errors at the point of care, reducing the chance of a patient receiving the wrong medication or the incorrect unit dosage. A mobile system also improves nursing efficiency and documentation, in addition to increased patient safety. A real-life example of an automated medication verification application details the benefits.

During the hospital or clinic admitting process, the patient is issued a wristband with a bar code specific to his or her medical condition and treatment. At the bedside, a nurse uses a mobile handheld computer to scan his or her identification and then scan the patient's wrist identification. Details regarding patient identification and medication, dosage, time, and route are verified. Before any drugs are administered, an alert system denotes a warning, if there are any discrepancies, notifying the nurse before any errors can possibly occur.

Tags are applied on medical equipments with the help of which the doctors can track down the exact location of the equipments without any hassles. The equipments can be easily located with the help of the Asset Tracking System. Any equipment, that is moved, is automatically detected, and thus, minimizes the possibility of equipment being misplaced or stolen. Any movement in equipment can be tracked and better efficiency can be introduced in hospitals.

In hospitals, dispensaries, and medical units a wide variety of products and information are constantly moving in, out and around a large area; knowing the equipments and personnel’s location can be a definite plus point. Intercode Solutions’ RTLS solutions provide a vastly superior and efficient mechanism to take care of this business, thus creating new opportunities for success. The RTLS system simplifies the entire process of asset tracking and enables smoother flow of operations. The RTLS Systems has the following components:

• Wi-Fi enabled Location Receivers - These are standard Wi-fi Access Points which are connected to the wired back-bone of the company, thus providing a wireless coverage of the entire vicinity.
• Exciters / Readers - These are Choke-Points, which are created within the vicinity to identify when the asset passed a particular location.
• Positioning Engine - This piece of software related to the tag via the Wi-Fi receivers would identify and give the position of the Tag within the Wi-Fi Confinement.
• Application Software - This software would use the positioning data given by the Positioning Engine with a Site map to relate to the exact locations that the RFID Tag is present. This piece of software would in real terms relate to the requirement for tracking and tracing.
