Austco Communication Systems Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Azure Healthcare Ltd (ASX:AZV), is pleased to announce the official launch of its Pulse Mobile smartphone solution. Pulse Mobile is a component of Austco’s innovative Tacera Pulse software suite of next generation clinical business intelligence solutions.

Pulse Mobile is a smartphone application designed for iOS and Android that allows healthcare personnel to receive nurse call and 3^rd party system alarms directly on their personal devices. The easy-to-configure solution is available for download from the Apple and Google Play stores. Users simply connect to their facility’s Wi-Fi network, and the app will communicate with the Austco Mobile Gateway (AMG).

Pulse Mobile creates the most optimized user experience with its intuitive user interface. The app is easy to learn and navigate, using technology that users are already familiar with. Caregivers can “Accept”, “Reject” or “Escalate” alarms with a simple action if they are unable to get to an assigned alarm immediately.

Using VoIP audio calling and VoIP-enabled call points, staff can respond to patient/resident alarms with Pulse Mobile’s callback feature. Since patient information is never stored on a recipient’s smartphone, Pulse Mobile ensures complete compliance with patient privacy laws.

Pulse Mobile simplifies the day-to-day activities of healthcare personnel by increasing their mobility. Notifications are routed to assigned caregiver’s smartphones, allowing them to determine which alarms require immediate attention at a quick glance. Pulse Mobile enhances staff efficiency and caregiver response times, which will help improve patient/resident outcomes.

Some of the benefits of Pulse Mobile include:

• Enhances staff mobility and efficiency
• Increases patient satisfaction
• Faster response times
• Safe and secure
