Hospitals globally are making tremendous investments in EHR systems to improve patient care. When an EHR system is deployed, hospitals and caregivers both benefit from increased access to patient health information. Having the right information at critical times speeds decision-making and enhances the care environment.

Unite integration with EHR systems complements these workflow enhancements by speeding up information flow. This integration utilizes standards-based protocols and helps create a “Connected” environment for caregivers – keeping staff better informed, promoting enhanced staff assignment and clinical responsiveness.
