Solutions for healthcare

Every day in a hospital, people work with extremely sensitive data and sensitive or dangerous substances. No matter whether it is offices, drug stores, laboratories or operating rooms - access should only be granted to a selected group of people. Modern access control systems support the management of patients, visitors and hospital staff and assign appropriate access authorizations to groups or individuals.

We at S&K Solutions make it possible for you to print service or visitor badges quickly and easily. Specific badges such as these ensure that only your own employees have access authorization and can visibly identify themselves with this service badge. Depending on individual requirements, the plastic cards can be personalized with photo, personnel number or name. Electronic access control for buildings or IT systems denies access if the data on the card chip is missing or different. For additional card security we offer various security features. For example, security elements can be printed on the card blank in the preprint form or supplemented on site with high-performance card printers as part of the personalization process, making possible forgeries more difficult.

Via an adapted identity management system, you can integrate additional functions for your service cards, such as time recording, payment processes or the service card can be used as parking authorization.

In addition to pre-printed offset cards, you can also print your employee and visitor badges directly on site. A suitable plastic card printer is a wise investment if you want to create different types of badges permanently. Depending on your requirements and company structure, we recommend the appropriate printer and the associated identity management system.

Our expanded range of barcode scanners, handheld scanners and mobile computers enables you to capture and document barcode solutions on patient wristbands, packaging or other hospital equipment, as well as RFID tags or labels, while improving patient safety. Various mobile and stationary data collection devices are available for processing the applied barcodes or embedded RFID chips. The selection ranges from simple hand scanners and RFID readers to mobile computers that allow direct access to the databases of the administration software.

Particularly in the focus thereby the bar code scanners and mobile computers, which convince by their handiness and speed when seizing the data, are located. Patient as well as medicine labels can be collected and processed in a central database without further obstacles.

Despite its high functionality, the handheld computer is very easy to use. Since the mobile computer is based on the Android operating system, every employee who owns an Android smartphone is familiar with the user interface and can operate the device without a long learning phase. By accessing the stored databases and communication tools, patient data can be updated directly at the hospital bed or laboratory results can be called up - for fast, safe and error-free patient care. Each device has Bluetooth and WLAN interfaces and can be expanded with RFID modules. As a certified RFID specialist of the manufacturer Zebra, S&K Solutions is happy to assist you in finding the right data acquisition system for your healthcare application.

Barcode scanners shine above all in warehouses and logistics. The mobile data acquisition via barcode reader avoids manual input errors, because scanning information in form of barcodes or QR codes is fast, comfortable and secure.

In order to keep an overview of possible allergies of a patient, as well as the ingredients of a drug, sufficient labeling is necessary. With the wristband and label printers from S&K Solutions, in-house labels for laboratory samples and medication containers or patient wristbands can be printed quickly and easily.

The printers guarantee a secure and flexible identification of persons as well as a perfect allocation of drugs and samples by means of text or barcode on the wristband or label.   Avoid a potential risk of confusion in the hospital by quickly and easily creating the required wristbands and labels yourself directly from your database on site.

Personalized patient wristbands are a suitable solution for secure patient identification. Due to the low material costs, they allow for a cost-effective processing. At the same time, it is possible to ensure increased security in personal identification by choosing appropriately securely closed wristbands, thus preventing misuse by unauthorized persons.

The offered products around electronic signage are particularly relevant for the healthcare sector, as they enable fully automated restocking and order management in the supply chain by means of appropriately designed software. E-Ink signs replace patient bedside labels, laboratory signs and warehouse labels, as well as paper door signs or operation plans, and are therefore considered flexible, digital and innovative signage in the entire healthcare sector.

Especially in large clinics with changing staff, e.g. in a training hospital, changing positions and names can be easily designed with the help of the supplied software and transferred wirelessly to e-paper labels for room labeling. It is also possible to update the room occupancy, which requires just one click and is shown in seconds on the e-ink display of the corresponding room. In addition, various interfaces link the labels to the hospital's administration software, which automatically makes changes to appointments based on daily or weekly schedules. With the electronic room labels, the data is always up-to-date and transparent for doctors, staff and patients. The E-Ink display ensures more efficient and safe treatment processes, as available patient rooms can be displayed and used immediately without manual intervention.
