Innovative Collaboration

Oh boy, let me tell you about some cool tech stuff happening right now in hospitals! So, Collette Health and Aceso are joining forces, and what they've cooked up is pretty neat. Basically, they’re making it super easy for hospitals to offer top-notch virtual care without turning the place upside down. I mean, who would’ve thought that the TV in your hospital room could do more than just show boring daytime shows?

The All-in-One Virtual Care Platform

Here’s the scoop: Collette Health has this all-in-one virtual care platform where they sort out everything from keeping an eye on patients virtually (so no more feeling abandoned) to virtual nursing (yes, get medical advice without waiting ages for a nurse to pop in). They’ve also got this thing called workforce augmentation that helps hospitals use their staff more wisely.

Introducing Pane of Glass™ Technology

And then, there’s Aceso, which has this cool Pane of Glass™ tech. It sounds fancy, right? It’s because it is. It lets hospitals display all sorts of important data right on the in-room TV.

a Smart Upgrade for Patients

So, Collette and Aceso thought, why not put all that together? Now, when you’re lying there in bed, not only can you binge-watch your favorite series, but you also get your health monitored, and have nurses help you out—all through the TV! It’s like your TV got a major upgrade to become your personal healthcare assistant.

Supporting Hospitals with Tight Budgets

This is super handy for hospitals struggling to juggle tight budgets and not enough hands on deck. With everything running through the TV, there's no need to bring in loads of new gadgets. Holly Miller, who heads up Collette Health, was super excited about this, saying it’s all about keeping things simple and patient-friendly. No one likes to be poked and prodded by a bunch of machines, right? And Todd Babineau from Aceso backed her up, emphasizing that this setup makes life easier for everyone involved—patients and care teams alike.

Flexibility for Hospital Departments

They even pointed out how this will help hospitals stay flexible. Different hospital departments can tweak the system to suit whatever they need without a fuss. That’s a big plus in a world where one-size-fits-all doesn’t really cut it anymore. Add to that the eco-friendly bonus of not having extra machines beep and blink around the clock, and it’s clear why they’re onto something good.

Collette Health's Expertise in Virtual Care

Collette Health isn’t new to this game. After they scooped up the Virtual Nursing Academy™, they doubled down on making sure hospitals have what they need to keep up with the times, digitally speaking. At the end of the day, it’s all about keeping patients happy and healthy with less hassle and more tech-savvy solutions.

Meet Collette Health at Upcoming Conference

And guess what? If you're around Atlanta from October 8-10 this year, pop by the ANCC National Magnet Conference. Collette Health will be showing off their cool new tech at booth 3214. It’s a chance to see all this wizardry in action.

Aceso's Commitment to Healthcare

A bit about Aceso, the brains behind the Pane of Glass™. These folks have been around since 2009, and they’ve been all-in on healthcare from the get-go. Based out of Boston, Aceso’s been a pioneer in thinking up smart, software solutions to make hospital stays less of a headache.

Leading the Virtual Care Revolution

And talking about Collette Health, they’re the big kahunas in the virtual care game. Their platform is the go-to for hospitals wanting to step up their virtual care. Thanks to their partnership with the Virtual Nursing Academy™, they’re constantly pushing the envelope, helping hospitals avoid costly mistakes and stay agile in this fast-moving world. They’ve clocked over 20 million observation hours and have been superheroes in preventing more than 100,000 patient falls a year. Now that's impressive!

Conclusion

So, next time you find yourself in a hospital bed staring at the TV, remember, it might just be the coolest piece of tech in the room, thanks to some smart people who thought about how to make your stay a bit better!
