Premise Transport

Do more than just automate patient transport – integrate and optimize it for seamless patient flow.

It’s no secret that backed-up patient transport results in bottlenecks that severely impact overall hospital patient flow. Premise Transport, an integral part of the Premise Patient Flow Platform, provides a real-time solution to manage the complex and dynamic demands of patient and material movement throughout the hospital. Through intuitive Web displays, intelligent work-queues and advanced job scheduling, Premise leverages existing telephony and paging infrastructures to automate time-consuming manual processes.

Proof Point -
“Transport supervisors are dedicated – they really care about the patients. With Premise, they now feel like they are managing their staff. They know who is doing what, and when. Their dynamic has really changed.”
– Clinical Systems Administrator

Integrating natively with ADT environments and the Premise Patient Flow Platform, Premise Transport automates request capture and delivery of transport jobs, as well as job status and resource tracking. Supporting both centralized and de-centralized transport environments through configurable logic-based job and resource assignment, as well as conflict-checking, Premise yields improved efficiency in a highly visible department, faster response times, and greater satisfaction among all the stakeholders who depend on patient transport – from surgeons in the OR, to hospitals board members, to the patients themselves.
