Mobile technology in healthcare

An overview by Jon Hoeksma

Wireless isn't the future: it's already with us
Almost every health professional already uses a mobile phone, and many also have laptops, notebooks or PDAs with at least the potential to be linked wirelessly.

The potential of wireless technology in health comes from enabling health professionals to conveniently access information and knowledge, irrespective of their location.

SMS 4 DNAs in the NHS
AvanquestFor twenty years Avanquest UK (formerly Kommunicate) Corporate Solutions have been supplying, implementing and supporting IT Solutions designed to speed up and enhance business processes, deliver tangible benefits to the bottom line and dramatically improve the day-to-day work experience for internal and external users. The Avanquest Text Messaging Solution has been instrumental in delivering these benefits.

Missed appointments waste valuable NHS and GPs' time. Each year in the UK almost 7 million out-patients appointments are missed. In the simplest case DNAs result from patients who forget to attend. An appointment reminder via text is all they need to jog their memory.

A text message will firstly remind the patient of the date and time of their appointment, but will also encourage them to contact the practice using, for example, a specified telephone number, if they know that they cannot attend � all within one simple text message.

For more information on Avanquest�s Text Message Server Solutions contact Avanquest Sales on +44 1962 835053 or email Sales@Avanquest.co.uk
