SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Spok, Inc. today welcomed leaders from more than 100 hospitals and
health systems to Connect
14, its annual conference for healthcare professionals. Healthcare
representatives gather each year to share best practices about critical
communications and workflow as well as hear about the evolution of
healthcare communications.
The conference opened this morning with remarks from Vincent D. Kelly,
chief executive officer, and Colin Balmforth, president. The leaders
shared a brief preview of upcoming product releases and offered insights
into the strategic direction of the Company. Morning highlights also
included an in-depth case study from BJC HealthCare. This long-time
customer and healthcare leader relies on Spok® solutions in
both clinical and call center settings to improve the way physicians and
others effectively coordinate patient care.
The three-day event will feature numerous customer case studies, panel
discussions, the Physician
Advisory Board, and product demonstrations. It is also a chance for
members of the Spok Directions user group to meet in person and deliver
feedback to Spok product experts. Session topics include HIPAA-compliant
texting, Joint Commission compliance, alarm fatigue, and the latest
trends in mobile communications.
“Our conference is an excellent forum for us to exchange information and
ideas with many of our healthcare customers,” said Kelly. “The informal
interaction is an opportunity to hear their feedback. Face-to-face
meetings are also invaluable in helping guide improvements in the way we
develop, deliver, and support our solutions.”
Additional updates from the conference will be posted to Spok’s Mobility
in Healthcare blog, Twitter
