HTO Robot Nurse Will Robots Replace Healthcare Providers?

Automation has been making human workers superfluous for centuries, but until recently, workers whose jobs required high-level cognitive skills have been able to rest easy, confident no machine could possibly replace them when it came to making nuanced decisions based on the evaluation of complicated, sometimes contradictory data. By Khal Rai, Senior Vice President, Product Development & Operations, SRS Health

  • The Right Population Health Analytics To Transform The Patient Experience
    6/14/2018

    Consider a situation where healthcare is not just an industry term- a situation where EHRs are not an integral part of physicians schedule but just a support to providing care. All considered, imagine a situation where patient-centric care actually involves the patient, and patient engagement is not just a buzzword but a reality. Unfortunately, all these imaginations were supposed to be a reality, but still, healthcare managers and organizations are struggling with the problems such as the lack of patients’ adherence to medication, varying trends in the population health, and a lot more. Patient populations, nowadays, expect the same on-demand delivery convenience from the healthcare organizations as they get from the other companies like Netflix.

  • Solving Nurse Allocation Issues: How AI Effectively Prepares Infusion Centers
    8/20/2019

    Louis Pasteur famously said, “Chance favors the prepared mind.” In highly specialized environments such as infusion centers, which are unpredictable by nature, it often seems impossible to adequately prepare. Scheduling is highly complex, wait times are long, and nurses are usually rushed. Burnout and job dissatisfaction are systemic, and as a result, the patient care experience is suboptimal. Yet, new technologies make it possible to reduce uncertainties, adapt to change, and fuel a new level of preparedness that tips chance heavily in favor of patients and staff while enabling centers to function efficiently.
