It’s no secret that healthcare professionals are facing monumental challenges everyday. How can patients receive better care with fewer resources? And is there a solution that minimizes the safety risks?

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, but through smarter technology, task simplification, and resource allocation, hospitals do have options.

When you envision a hospital of the future, what do you see?

Chances are, there is leading-edge technology (such as digital signage) that can help manage risks, meet targets, and improve efficiency while providing the software and services to back it up.

With a shrinking labor pool and unprecedented numbers of patients, hospitals are proactively addressing these challenges by partnering with Barcodes, Inc. and Elo.

For a much faster hospital workflow, keep your hospital high-functioning, patient-centric, and completely transparent. Barcodes, Inc. delivers the top-tier services, software, and technology to support your hospital and everyone who depends on it.

Whether it’s wayfinding, self-service no-contact kiosks, pharmacy access and inventory logging, room management, or interactive signage for patients and their families, busy hospitals owe it to themselves and those in their care to modernize their front-line technology.

Upgrading your hospital technology does not have to be an arduous, expensive challenge.

Webinar:

Re-Engineering Distribution Center Workflow with Voice Automation

Thursday, November 11th, 2:00 PM – 2:30 PM ET

Presented By:

Raul Cepeda Jr. – Barcodes Group

Doug Brown – Honeywell

Kelley Wood – Honeywell

Distribution center operations are under constant pressure to adapt and excel in market dynamics never seen before. Constant labor shortages, increasing demand to add eCommerce delivery options, and massive inbound vendor volatility are a constant threat.

The answer is in process change and data collection technology that enables worker automation. Join Barcodes and Honeywell on this webinar where we dive into the issues and things you need to know before your start your DC transformation.

In the webinar, we cover the following topics and more:

• Why inefficient workflows such as poorly routed pick paths as so common in distribution centers
• How a voice automation site analysis can increase worker productivity, accuracy, and safety
• What the intuitive nature of voice technology does to impact employee onboarding and satisfaction

Contact us to schedule a personalized consultation to see how to incorporate voice automation with Honeywell in your DC.

Enter the Smart Campus with Ruckus Networks to attract and drive higher student retention and engagement with the R720/R730 access points and the ICX7150ZP access switch.

Student success and retention remains an important part of all modern colleges and universities. To start to improve student experience on campus, it is important to provide the right tools for students to engage digitally in campus life. A Smart Campus starts with reliable wired and wireless connectivity capable of anywhere in campus to provide smart living, learning, and security.

Smart Living– Drive down costs and create a “greener” campus. Begin streamline and automate many campus services such as any smart home technologies can connect thermostats, video cameras, and smart devices to control inside campus buildings. Universities can also use the smart technology to give students and staff a more personalized control of their environments for building control, automation, smart water, and power controls.

Smart Learning– Elevate higher education with smart learning, integrate digital capabilities for flexible learning space and better collaboration. Students and professors can learn and teach in a way that’s most effective for them and with the ubiquitous mobility and connectivity they have access to the vast amount of information at their fingertips.

Smart Security and Safety– Make campus safer and more secure with connected surveillance cameras, smart locks, and perimeter controls, asset tracking and smart emergency services. Current traditional security have these systems operated separately, a smart campus can combine and integrate into one unified system to make automated real-time decisions that keeps everyone on campus safer.

Wall mount AP/ switch for residence halls and IPTV for the best connection to every device. All Ruckus products provides secure access and use open APIs that allows easy integration with devices, applications, and management solutions from multiple systems.

Contact Barcodes and Ruckus to find a solution that you need to build a new smart living, learning, and safe campus.

You often hear manufacturers reference ESD when discussing scanners.  In fact, on the Honeywell Granit datasheet you’ll see under the “Environmental” section on the back:  ESD.  ±20Kv air discharge, ±8KV contact discharge

What does it mean and why is it important?

• ESD – electrostatic discharge – is the sudden flow of electricity between two objects resulting from two conditions:
  • Air Discharge.  A high electrostatic field between two objects when they are in close proximity.
  • Contact Discharge.  Direct contact transfer of electricity between two objects at different potentials.  This is similar to the above except you are injecting the shock directly into the computer. A typical example of this would be 20KV Air Discharge into a scanner vehicle mount.  The mount in turn passes an 8KV shock to the scanner.

• Kv is a kilovolt – or 1,000 Volts. And a volt is…um…a unit of measurement to define voltage.  Think of voltage, using a plumbing analogy, as water pressure.
