iBleep
Dakota IS has an informal Alliance Partnership with iBleep for reciprocal business with the Socket SoMo650Rx mobile device, the device tested & referenced by the iBleep developers.
iBleep, is an intelligent bleeping system that uses web technology to enhance communication between nurses, night-sisters and doctors. It enables a Ward to request a Doctor to patient bedside, in a timely and accurate manner. The communication and data retrieval system is set to replace the pager – immortalised in countless TV doctor and nurse shows – and give NHS trusts an insight for the first time into how clinicians work.
A doctor can sometimes gets paged six or seven times for the same call. iBleep makes sure the call is a one off and all the relevant information is available to them. iBleep, which colour codes the calls according to priority, also conveys critical patient information.
By providing detailed analysis of the critical path between initial call and response, iBleep could revolutionise the way hospitals rota staff, cutting costs and improving individual performance. Of particular immediate interest is how iBleep is helping the Hospital @ Night initiative under the Working Time Directive.
The technology has taken New Zealand by storm where nurses are raising 10,000 calls a month using iBleep.
