SPRINGFIELD, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Spok,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Spok Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:
SPOK) and the global leader in enterprise critical communications, today
announced that key executives will be participating in several upcoming
healthcare events. These include Becker's Hospital Review Annual CIO/HIT
+ Revenue Cycle Summit, July 27 to 28 in Chicago and Spok Connect
Chicago on Sept. 15. In addition, President Hemant Goel will introduce
the keynote speaker at the CHIME 16 Fall CIO Forum, which takes place
Nov. 1 to 4 in Phoenix.
“Hospitals today are facing significant challenges when it comes to
communication,” said Vincent D. Kelly, president and chief executive
officer of Spok Holdings, Inc. “There is a need to exchange information
quickly and securely with a mobile workforce, and at the same time
comply with regulatory requirements.”
Added to the challenge is the evolving technology. “We hear from our
customers that they are constantly dealing with the limitations of
managing multiple systems across their organizations that aren’t
designed to integrate. This means critical information such as staff
contact details, on-call schedules, and important alerts aren’t always
easy to access, which can affect patient care,” said Kelly.
At each of these industry events, Spok representatives will focus on how
improved clinical messaging throughout the organization can strengthen
patient outcomes. The Spok Care Connect® platform helps
hospitals accomplish this with integrated solutions across patient
floors, in the call center, and in lab and radiology areas. These
solutions include on-call
scheduling, web
directories, clinical
alerting, and secure
text messaging in addition to operator
consoles and paging.
