Connected Care
The future of healthcare is connected
Healthcare is at a turning point. Clinicians face growing workloads, while patients increasingly expect seamless, coordinated experiences. Despite recent advances in technology, medical devices and clinical systems continue to be isolated from each other, preventing effective data sharing, creating inefficiencies and increasing the potential for gaps in care. The future demands better connectivity.80 megabytes
