Alignment is a beautiful thing. Most of us work hard to achieve it in our work, families and our personal lives. It’s really great when it just happens!
When we saw TJC’s National Patient Safety Goal for Alarm Management, we realized immediately that counting alarms from the medical devices in a hospital would be required to understand the dimensions of the alarm challenge and how to respond. We also knew, from our work in hospitals with Amplion Alert, how difficult that would be without the right tools.
So, here’s the alignment. Everybody wants to reduce alarm fatigue to make patients safer and improve the working environment in the hospital. Hospitals now have a mandate from TJC and a deadline to do that. We have technology that makes understanding the number of alarms faster, less expensive and more accurate.
Of course, we also see this as an opportunity to work together with lots of great people in hospitals and show how we can help with medical device alarms.
