ISS Solutions Helps Frankford Hospitals Improve Patient
Care through Wireless Technology Solutions
Langhorne, PA, March 31, 2006—ISS
Solutions, a leading provider of specialized clinical
engineering and information technology lifecycle
management services,
announced today the implementation of a wireless medical
cart solution for Frankford Hospitals.
The
solution incorporates wireless infrastructure design,
security protocol implementation, and mobile cart and
laptop deployment. It will help improve Frankford’s
already stellar reputation for delivering quality
patient care. In all, 100 mobile workstations will be
deployed across Frankford’s three campus locations:
Bucks County, Frankford, and Torresdale.
Frankford’s physicians and nurses will use the new
mobile workstations to improve patient care through
on-demand access to electronic medical records,
streamlined data flow processes, and computerized
physician order entry related to critical elements such
as prescription drug orders.
George Casper, I.T. Technical Services Manager at
Frankford, commented “We’re very excited about this
wireless implementation. It is critical that it be
implemented correctly to ensure quality care and HIPPA
security compliance. So we chose ISS Solutions for the
implementation, not only because they have the technical
expertise regarding wireless technology, but because
they are an established technology partner in the Bucks
County area. Their experts are only minutes away from
our 3 campus locations.”
Peter Brooks, CEO of ISS Solutions, said “There is a
trend in the healthcare industry toward wireless medical
technology. Hospitals need the right partners to help
them implement these advanced solutions. Our heritage as
a Geisinger company is assurance to our healthcare
clients that we understand their culture as well as
