Cognosos’ technology helps track the location of essential mobile medical equipment, thereby helping healthcare facilities to optimise their operations, find hidden expenses, and boost employee and patient experience.
Leveraging long-range wireless networking technology, RTLS taps artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud technologies to significantly reduce the hardware footprint and related installation challenges required for real-time asset tracking. The Cognosos LocationAI is an AI-powered location engine that provides both site-wide and room-level visibility.
The combined technologies of RTLS and LocatioAI allow tracking across patient treatment rooms and common areas seamlessly, without requiring any further equipment.
Insights derived from RTLS help in taking evidence-based decisions, thereby improving efficiency and driving return of investment at scale for healthcare facilities.
