Mobile Application A First For Hospital Transportation Management

TeleTracking Technologies announced thelaunch of TransportTracking mobile, a handheld version of its transport management software and the latest in a series of wireless conversions of TeleTracking's desktop solutions.

The new offering, to be showcased October 1 at the 2007 ASHES / NAHTM Conference in St. Louis, brings to the PDA the benefits of TransportTracking, the industry's first dispatcher-less transport management solution, which has helped hundreds of hospitals expedite and measure hospital transport teams for more than a decade.

TransportTracking mobile was designed for use by supervisors and transporters to enhance team communication when everyone is mobile. Rather than running to their desks, supervisors can manage and modify workload with a few clicks while on the floors and in hallways where their transporter team is working. Plus, they have real-time access to report data and statistics to help improve the efficiency of their team, which in turn means greater satisfaction for patients, clinical staff and hospital operations.

Transporters using mobiles will wirelessly receive and manage all information about their transport tasks, making them more efficient and productive.

TransportTracking mobile is a recent enhancement allowed by therecent launch of TeleTracking's new technology platform called TeleTracking XT; this browser-based software provides flexibility, scalability and a new and easy to navigate user interface for hospitals.

TransportTracking powered by TeleTracking XT and TransportTracking mobile will be on display at the ASHES/NAHTM conference being held in St Louis, MO from September 30-October 4, 2007. Stop by Booth # 407 to see all of their capacity and patient flow management products in action.
