Whether or not your hospital or healthcare facility has its own lab, ensuring a prompt and appropriate turnaround time (TAT) for a lab sample can significantly impact patient satisfaction and clinical decision-making. TAT is widely defined as the time elapsed from when the lab receives the sample until the sample reports are sent back to the clinical staff with lab verification. Physicians may view TAT as the time between test ordering and result reporting. No matter the definition, both can factor into a patient's care outcome and experience. For facility leaders with in-house labs, think: when did you last analyze your lab's average TAT?

According to the most recent Medicare cost reports in the American Hospital Directory, there are roughly 156.5 million combined annual patient days at hospitals throughout the United States. Nearly 5% of hospitalized patients experience an adverse drug event during their inpatient stay, as stated by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Synchronized clocks from Primex can help build stronger medication administration routines for a higher level of patient safety. 

There's no denying the importance of patient satisfaction for every hospital or healthcare facility. Surely, striving for positive patient health outcomes is the number one goal, but patient satisfaction and experience can play an integral role in ensuring that happens.

Primex OneVue solutions can improve any new building. From large-yet-segmented hospitals and schools to wide-open warehouses and transit centers, Primex technology can help strengthen timeliness, safety, and communication. But before these solutions can get to work, they often need to be included in new building plans that construction firms put together.

Keeping activities on time can be vital within any facility, be it a school, hospital, pharmacy, or warehouse. Healthcare patients sometimes require and always deserve to receive on-time care. Classes and tests that start on time can help to make students feel less rushed. Warehouse product line or transit center efficiency is best when employees work cohesively under synchronized time.

The timely deliverance of care plays an essential role in many aspects of the healthcare industry. Seeing patients on time can maximize a schedule's allotment, which helps generate more revenue for the hospital or health system. Avoiding long wait times or constant reschedules can also improve patient satisfaction, contributing to increased reimbursement rates if HCAHPS scores are high.

By offering automated monitoring, synchronized time, and mass notifications, Primex can provide solutions that genuinely optimize facilities and workflows. Our solutions can also relieve stress and solve common bothers for employees like nursing staff, teachers, business leaders, and others.

No matter the event, mass communication systems can help facilities communicate about important happenings and procedures throughout an entire building.

As technology continues to develop, it's imperative that both new and existing healthcare facilities are able to implement relevant, modern solutions during every stage of the building or renovation process.
