Halifax Health Expands Use of Vocera Communication Platform to Improve Security and Efficiency
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 12, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vocera Communications, Inc. (NYSE:VCRA), the leading healthcare communications company, today announced that Halifax Health, the largest medical provider in east central Florida, has expanded its use of the Vocera Communication Platform, selecting Vocera’s secure text messaging solution for physicians in addition to Vocera’s hands-free communication system that has been used by care team members for several years. Integrating the hospital’s key clinical systems with Vocera has also improved operational workflow and patient care delivery. For more than six years, Halifax Health has partnered with Vocera to improve care team communication and patient experience. In 2009, the hospital implemented the Vocera® Communication Badge, a wearable voice-controlled device that enables instant two-way or one-to-many conversations. The mobile solution quickly reduced overhead paging in the health system’s 99,000-square-foot emergency department, which prompted an expansion of the hands-free devices to more than 3,200 personnel and nearly every clinical department. In the hospital’s France Tower, where each floor is the size of a football field, the Vocera system also made it much easier and faster for staff members to locate each other. "Before implementing Vocera, many of our nurses were exhausted simply trying to track down colleagues. With Vocera, care team members connect faster and the hospital became quieter – a more ideal environment for healing and working," said Tom Stafford, vice president and chief information officer at Halifax Health. “There is no other communication system that can send a notification as closely and instantly to a nurse than Vocera. That’s why, when it came time to select a secure text messaging solution, we chose the Vocera Collaboration Suite. Our successful, long-time partnership with Vocera, and the fact that the smartphone solution combines texting with voice communication and integrates with our clinical systems, made it an easy and natural choice.” The trend of ‘bring your own device’ has presented many risks and opportunities for health systems around the country. With more than 500 physicians on staff, Halifax Health turned to Vocera to avoid these risks and provide a secure texting solution for clinicians inside and outside the hospital. In early 2016, Halifax deployed the Vocera Collaboration Suite, a mobile application that enables HIPAA-compliant texting, alert notifications and voice calls via smartphones using intelligent call routing by name, role, group, and availability. Now, clinicians can securely connect and consult by text or voice, eliminating unsecure communication, improving staff response times, and reducing delays in care. In addition, Halifax Health has integrated the Vocera Communication Platform with several clinical systems, including the hospital’s electronic health records (EHR) and patient flow systems. Integration with Meditech enables discharge notifications to be sent automatically to the right care team members via their smartphone or hands-free Vocera Badge as soon as the physician’s orders are entered into the EHR, accelerating the entire patient discharge process. Since the integration, Halifax Health has reported an 8 percent decrease in the time it takes to discharge a patient on the oncology unit. “Halifax Health truly understands the importance of instant and secure communication between clinicians across the entire healthcare system,” said Brent Lang president and CEO of Vocera. “An integrated, enterprise communication strategy helps safeguard physicians and patient information while also improving the healthcare experience for hospital staff, patients and families.” About Halifax HealthHalifax Health is the largest medical provider in east central Florida, serving the counties of Volusia and Flagler since 1928. The hospital has more 4,300 team members and more than 500 physicians,

LPWA for IoT Connections
by Gary Audin
The Internet of Things (IoT) is upon us. IoT growth impacts enterprises and the networks they access. IoT devices for the home have captured many people’s attention, but it is the business and industrial sides of IoT that will be important managing costs, revenue and profits. Connecting billions of IoT devices economically is part of the challenge. The introduction of Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) cellular technologies is one answer.
Will Yapp, VP of Business Development for Senet http://www.senetco.com/ and Gary Audin discus IoT and wireless access technologies in this podcast. The discussion covers IoT devices, their power and maintenance and connecting to both fixed and mobile devices. Will focuses on the interoperability issues and the adoption of the LoRa® Alliance’s standards https://www.lora-alliance.org/ and its mission is to produce a global standard for LPWA.
Senet http://www.senetco.com/ provides the first public Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) utilizing the LoRa standard for the rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoT) market in North America. Low Power Wide Area Networks are the key to unlock the enormous potential of IoT solutions. Experts estimate that more than 55 percent of the IoT market will be best suited to LPWAN connectivity.

Infinite Convergence brings messaging solutions to the enterprise and carriers
Texting is fast, immediate, understood and actionable. It does not seem to have the footprint of email. Messaging mounted from mobile devices has many advantages. But the problem is that if these communications are occurring outside of the communication network that the enterprise manages, issues of privacy, security, the safe keeping of corporate intellectual property and internal news, and much more are at risk. In many industries such as health care, education finance and defense, the "rogue" BYOD user might be shredding regulations or even violating national security safeguards. The initial impulse to ban or limit these communications has not worked and is probably wrong headed in terms of embracing technical progress.
In this podcast with President & CEO Anurag Lal we learn how Infinite Convergence and their flagship services, NetSfere and Enterprise Messaging Service (EMS) Plus provides safe, secure and robust messaging services to the enterprise. The firm also offers carrier grade solutions such as Multimedia Messaging Service Center (MMSC). The company currently serves 130 million subscribers globally.

Avaya and FatPipe partner to deliver first integrated SD-WAN solution to support data center and branch office UC
Earlier this week FatPipe Networks and Avaya announced a strategic integration that combines data center Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Software Defined WAN (SD-WAN) into a single integrated solution for networking and unified communications.
The joint press release said that it was the first integrated SDN and SD-WAN solution of its kind. In this podcast JT, Avaya's Vice President and Chief Technologist and FatPipe’s President and CTO Sanchaita Datta, discuss how their announcement is already impacting customers and signaling a new trend towards providing a single source for a converged solution.
According to Gartner, by 2019 more than 30 percent of the Ethernet switching networks installed in enterprise data centers will be modernized with Ethernet fabric architectures, up from less than 10 percent today (Gartner, Magic Quadrant for Data Center Networking, May 2016). At the same time, 30 percent of enterprises will use SD-WAN products in all their branches, up from less than 1 percent today (Gartner, Market Guide for Software-Defined WAN, December 2015). Gartner recommends an integrated network fabric that not only delivers network services across physical and virtual networking, but also provides a unified management platform, and SD-WAN should be implemented as part of a comprehensive WAN architecture.
