Guide to Better Staff Safety in Healthcare
How healthcare facilities can leverage IoT and RTLS to increase staff safety & satisfaction
The healthcare industry has been forced to be creative when dealing with what has become a permanent challenge — staff shortages that make it difficult to perform at optimum levels.

Even with more investment in recruitment and training, attractive salaries and every imaginable additional incentive, turnover remains an issue. Add to this the fact that demographic changes are fueling unprecedented demand for healthcare services and you can see how staffing challenges have the potential to critically impact the overall performance of any healthcare facility.
