Product Description:

Equum Medical's Virtual Inpatient Telemetry Services are designed to enhance patient care by providing continuous, remote cardiac monitoring for hospitals. This service is particularly valuable for healthcare facilities facing staffing challenges, limited resources, and the need to extend cardiac monitoring capabilities without additional on-site staff.

Our virtual telemetry services utilize advanced technology to monitor patients' cardiac rhythms in real-time. Trained telemetry technicians continuously observe patients' cardiac data from a centralized location, allowing for immediate detection of any irregularities or potential cardiac events. This real-time monitoring enables prompt intervention and supports clinical decision-making, enhancing patient safety and outcomes.

One of the primary benefits of Equum Medical's Virtual Inpatient Telemetry Services is the ability to provide high-quality cardiac care without the need for a physical presence of telemetry staff at the bedside. This reduces the strain on hospital resources and allows on-site staff to focus on direct patient care. Additionally, our services ensure that patients in rural or underserved areas have access to specialized cardiac monitoring, which might otherwise be unavailable.

By integrating virtual telemetry into their care models, hospitals can achieve several key advantages, including improved patient safety, early detection and management of cardiac events, and optimized use of clinical resources. Our telemetry services also help reduce the length of hospital stays by providing continuous monitoring that supports timely and effective treatment decisions.

Equum Medical's commitment to leveraging technology for better healthcare outcomes ensures that our Virtual Inpatient Telemetry Services are a reliable, scalable solution for hospitals seeking to enhance their cardiac care capabilities. Through continuous monitoring, expert analysis, and seamless integration with existing hospital workflows, we help healthcare providers deliver superior cardiac care to their patients.

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Fully interoperable with any nurse scheduling system

Enables health system to create their own internal agency

Differentiators vs Competitors:
  • ShiftMed uses a W2 workforce instead of a 1099 workforce, which means that the healthcare professionals who work with ShiftMed are considered employees, rather than independent contractors. By using a W2 workforce, ShiftMed is able to provide a higher level of support and stability for its healthcare professionals, and assumes the risk for its health system partners.

  • ShiftMed integrates with UKG (Ultimate Kronos Group), a workforce management and human capital management software, to provide a seamless experience for healthcare facilities and professionals. The integration allows healthcare facilities using UKG to access ShiftMed's platform and book qualified healthcare professionals directly from within the UKG platform. This helps to simplify the staffing process for healthcare facilities, enabling them to manage their workforce more efficiently and effectively.

  • ShiftMed has partnered with Uber Health to provide reliable and efficient transportation for healthcare professionals using the ShiftMed platform. Uber Health is a HIPAA-compliant transportation solution that enables healthcare providers to order rides for their patients and employees. Through the partnership, ShiftMed healthcare professionals can use Uber Health to get to and from their shifts at healthcare facilities, ensuring that they arrive on time and are able to provide high-quality care to their patients.
