Demand for Tablet Protection Soars in Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities
The demand for tablet protection is soaring in hospitals and healthcare facilities across the nation. AMZER branded tablet products provide the protection needed to implement these solutions across various healthcare enterprises. Here are some examples of how rapid implementation of tablets is leading charge in this sector:
Adoption of iPads and Tablets in Hospitals
iPads and tablets have been increasingly used in hospitals and healthcare facilities for various purposes, including patient care, electronic health records (EHR), telemedicine, and medical education. According to a report by HIMSS Analytics, around 38% of healthcare providers were already using tablets in 2016, and this number has likely increased since then.
Patient Engagement and Education
Tablets are used to engage patients by providing educational materials, facilitating communication with healthcare providers, and allowing access to personal health records. Research by Black Book Market Research LLC in 2018 found that around 89% of healthcare providers believed that patient engagement with tablets improved patient satisfaction and outcomes.
EHR Adoption
Tablets, including iPads, have been instrumental in the transition to electronic health records (EHR) systems in healthcare settings. In 2019, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) reported that 96% of non-federal acute care hospitals had adopted certified EHR technology, and tablets played a significant role in accessing and updating patient records.
Telemedicine and Remote Patient Monitoring
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring solutions, many of which rely on tablets for virtual consultations and remote patient management. According to a survey by Doximity in 2020, around 76% of healthcare providers were using telemedicine platforms, and tablets were commonly used devices for delivering virtual care services.
Medical Education and Training
Tablets are increasingly used for medical education and training purposes, allowing healthcare professionals to access medical literature, educational videos, and simulation tools. A study published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology in 2018 reported that 85% of radiology residency programs used tablets for educational purposes.
It's evident that iPads and Samsung tablets continue to play a vital role in the healthcare industry, facilitating various aspects of patient care, communication, and medical education. Demand will only continue to increase and that's why AMZER developed the Jelly, TUFFEN, and Hybrid Case product lines. All of these products play a critical role in ensuring enterprises that their technology investments last as long as possible and are fully protected.
