Honeywell’s Robert Robinson on healthcare digitalisation

Robert Robinson is the Vice President and General Manager for Honeywell Solutions at Honeywell, which is looking for ways to help companies from the perspective of digitisation.

“How do we enable companies to do some of these things automatically? How do we enable companies to do some of these things remotely?” asks Robinson.

Honeywell Healthcare has an upgraded nurse call solution system that is digitised and can sort through different patient requests, providing nurses with guidance to escalate each of these requests based on the clinical emergency.

“We enable digitisation in the hospital space by really providing solutions, clinical flow solutions, or workflow solutions that are able to drive efficiency through the process,” explains Robinson. “Healthcare facilities can track the reduction of errors to see for themselves. This has a significant impact on the amount of time a patient stays in the hospital.”  RINGCENTRAL Software development company RingCentral supports telemedicine solutions to increase staff retention and meet patient needs. Telemedicine solutions also keep the data of residents safe and secure.
