pCare Smart Room Featured At New Moffitt Cancer Center McKinley

TAMPA, FL —pCare announces its partnership with Moffitt Cancer Center, the only National Cancer Institute–designated Comprehensive Cancer Center based in Florida, for the ongoing integration and support of its end-to-end interactive patient care system into the new inpatient surgical facility, Moffitt Cancer Center McKinley Hospital.

“Moffitt McKinley Hospital’s extensive use of our interactive patient care solutions will enhance the overall experience through compassionate care and patient, family and clinician collaboration,” said Dave Bennett, chief executive officer at pCare. “We are proud to partner with Moffitt Cancer Center to boost patient experience and staff satisfaction by leveraging the healing potential of education, communication and empowerment.”

With a purposeful and thoughtful design, pCare’s technology ensures patient engagement throughout the care journey. Each 350-square-foot room within the new 10-story building is equipped with a Smart TV running pCare’s IPS, including the Digital Whiteboard, which displays key patient and provider information; TV entertainment; and BYOD (bring your own device) and casting capabilities, allowing patients to pair their personal devices with the pCare system.

The patient engagement integration also includes Room Connect, the powerful digital door display that shows key patient information at the entrance of their room and a bedside tablet option to easily navigate the system.

“Using pCare’s technology, we’re delivering unparalleled patient-centered care that encompasses the needs of patients and caregivers,” said Christine Alvero, vice president of hospital operations at Moffitt McKinley Hospital. “The technology provides seamless integration with our existing systems and improves the overall inpatient experience for both patients and team members.”

Moffitt McKinley Hospital admitted its first patient on July 31. The expansive implementation by the leading Best in KLAS IPS provider to enhance patient experiences and support caregivers and staff is in anticipation of the drastically increased patient volume of up to 65 percent expected within the community over the next 10 years.
