Mackenzie Health works securely with BlackBerry
Back in June, BlackBerry CEO John Chen joined the Partnering for Innovation: Healthcare in the Digital Age keynote discussion at the launch of phase two of the Mackenzie Health Innovation Unit. In the first phase of the project, Mackenzie Health implemented technologies such as 'smart' beds, 'smart' badges and communications stations, enhanced hand hygiene support solution and dome lights indicators to create safer and more effective patient care.
As part of the phase two launch, Mackenzie Health partnered with BlackBerry, Cisco and ThoughtWire to intelligently route Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) data and alerts to BlackBerry smartphones carried by clinicians on the unit. Nurses and physicians working on the Innovation Unit have been equipped with BlackBerry smartphones such as the BlackBerry Passport, Z10 and Classic, connected to the secure clinical alerting and messaging system as well as BES12, and the new BlackBerry IOT Platform.
