March 19 2020 - 7:30AM
VitalHub Corp. (the “Company” or “VitalHub”) (TSXV: VHI) announced
today that it will be deploying its patient flow solution,
utilizing its Oculys Performance technology, for five hospitals in
Windsor and Essex County to assist them in their efforts to plan
for and manage patient flow in the face of a possible COVID-19
pandemic.
This announcement comes on the heels of an additional request
that the Company had received from its clients to assist them in
preparing their hospitals for the creation and implementation of
assessment centres - to accommodate the anticipated influx of
patients being assessed and treated for COVID-19.
The configuration of the Oculys solution has started and will be
deployed immediately, beginning with updating the configurations to
provide real-time and accurate information about the patients being
treated for COVID-19 to protect staff and optimize care. The
solution is being rolled out at Windsor Regional Hospital’s two
Campuses (Met and Ouellette) as well as at Hotel-Dieu Grace
HealthCare, Bluewater Health, Erie Shores Health Care and
Chatham-Kent Health Alliance.
“Our government and healthcare leadership across the Province of
Ontario are taking strong and decisive action that supports a
strategy of containment of this virus through the early
identification and isolation of cases,” said Dan Matlow, CEO of
VitalHub Corp.
“Organizationally and as a region we are taking steps to
contain, control and manage this pandemic and working with our
existing vendors to receive timely support in a situation that is
evolving quickly is important. Each of the Windsor and Essex County
Hospitals have worked with the Oculys solutions to support
improvements in patient flow and operational visibility for a
number of years. The transparency and visibility that the solution
provides is one that we are able to further leverage in support of
managing COVID-19,” said Karen McCullough, Chief Operating Office
and Chief Nursing Executive of Windsor Regional Hospital.
