IoT for the
Medical Industry

About the Internet of Things (IoT)

Real-time integration of hardware, software, people, and the cloud. 

The IoT is how your doctor monitors your heart rate and glucose levels while you’re at home. It’s how an asthma inhaler can signal that it’s been left behind or track environmental factors when you have an episode.

More technically, IoT uses a network of sensors to relay big data to the cloud and provides opportunities for:

  • remote, real-time, and meaningful patient care

  • the operational accountability of processes like sample-tracking

  • state-of-the-art facilities management that supports everything from disease-specific hygiene monitoring to improved inventory control.

In a highly regulated industry, such as healthcare, digital tracking of cleaning tasks offers several advantages that align with the stringent requirements and compliance standards.

Compliance Assurance

Regulations and standards in highly regulated industries often mandate specific cleanliness and hygiene protocols. Digital tracking ensures that cleaning tasks are conducted according to these regulations, providing a reliable and auditable record of compliance. Not to mention digital tracking systems create detailed and accessible documentation of cleaning activities.

This documentation is invaluable during regulatory audits, inspections, or accreditation processes. It provides a transparent and traceable history of cleaning practices, helping the organization demonstrate adherence to regulatory requirements. Assigning and tracking cleaning tasks digitally enhances accountability among custodial staff. Knowing that their activities are monitored fosters a sense of responsibility, reducing the likelihood of oversights and ensuring that every task is completed to the required standards.

Regulations in highly regulated industries can evolve over time. Digital tracking systems are adaptable and can be easily modified to incorporate changes in regulatory requirements. This flexibility ensures that the organization remains compliant even as regulations are updated.
