Everyone is well aware of visiting a hospital is not so exciting, but companies like NXT Health are working closely to change the way we experience treatment in hospital rooms.
The goal is to improve the room designs and further enhance the interoperability efficiency of the systems in order to eliminate wasteful redundancy and technological clutter that plague many modern healthcare facilities.
Some of the improvements have been felt with positive reviews flowing in like the one share by a patient from Dallas, TX, “I had outpatient surgery at Hill County Memorial Hospital and am delighted with the service I’ve received. The registration clerk was friendly and efficient at 5:15 am! The nurses in the OR made me very comfortable and treated me with respect. I appreciated the follow up calls at home after my surgery. As the saying goes, “No surgery or hospital stay is fun”, but with the caring nurses my stay was less stressful and they explained everything to me as we want.”
In order to facilitate changing technology and the dynamic needs of healthcare systems, the space should allow pre-fabricated, modular system of interchangeable parts for adaptations to occur with a minimal impact on facility operations. Additionally, the technological touch points that are woven into the concept empower patients to have a sense of comfort and control during the medical experience by empowering them to connect with remote loved ones, collaborate with caregivers, and adjust various environmental features.
