Emergency care providers manage multiple resources
and challenges simultaneously. They require an emergency room
management solution which can do the same.
"Hospital chief executive officers should
adopt enterprise-wide operations management and related strategies
to improve the quality and efficiency of emergency care."

Hospital-Based Emergency Care: At the Breaking Point
StatCom ED integrates with the Hospital Operating
SystemTM solution for a complete enterprise
solution. For many patients the hospital experience starts in
the ED, and the care they receive here leaves a lasting impression.
Emergency care providers are managing multiple resources and
challenges. Emergency room management and patient care systems
encompass numerous processes from scheduling diagnostic tests and
obtaining laboratory results, to admitting patients and locating
specialists.
StatCom ED provides a uniquely designed emergency department
patient logistics application with the additional benefit of
StatCom's system-wide Hospital Operating System solution
capabilities. The emergency department has many of the same
resource and patient dynamics seen in the inpatient environment
with the added challenge of patient stays represented by minutes
and hours rather than days and weeks.
Managing the rapidly changing care environment of the ED
requires the simultaneous management capabilities StatCom has been
designed to address. StatCom's Hospital Operating System enables
hospitals to dramatically reduce inpatient admission backups,
patient diversions, ED boarders and patients left without being
seen (LWBS).
StatCom ED solves inefficient emergency department
flow.
