THE SMART HOSPITAL

THE SMART HOSPITAL

To remain successful, even in the future, hospitals must clearly define their digital process needs. This is the starting point for a sustainable digital strategy. However, it is often difficult to clearly establish the status of the digital transition of a building. With our Quick-Check, our experts provide you with quick and detailed help and accompany you on your way to the Smart Hospital.   

WHAT ARE YOUR DIGITAL TRANSITION NEEDS?

  • Do you mainly use paper-based procedures?
  • You want or need to accelerate the digital transition of your institution, but you don't know how digital you are today and what the transition should lead to?
  • Do you need to adapt your care and treatment processes to digital management or do you need to establish it first?
  • Do you want to avoid isolated, after-the-fact solutions if possible?
  • Do you aim for a sustainable improvement of structures and processes (in care and administration)?
  • Do you want to significantly relieve your staff and improve patient care?
  • Do you want to obtain a rigorous and easily applicable digital transition concept within a short period of time?

 

 

THESE TOPICS ARE RELEVANT TO YOU:

  • State of the art of digital progress
  • Digitalisation of processes
  • Patients and staff benefit from digital processes
  • Strengthening competitiveness through increased efficiency
  • AI for patient safety
  • Cybersecurity

 

OUR SUPPORT FOR AN INTELLIGENT HOSPITAL:

Our requirements management for the digital transition of healthcare real estate aligns user expectations and project-specific requirements with the degree of digitalization of the building. Our healthcare experts assess the degree of digitalization by taking a comprehensive approach based on a 360° analysis. This includes an initial interview and a quick-check analysis of the current digital status (Phase 1). This initial analysis is used to help our clients make decisions (Phase 2). The implementation of our recommendations can either be through the construction of new buildings or through the rehabilitation or restructuring of existing buildings, be they hospitals, clinics, medical centres, practices, rehabilitation centres or care centres (Phases 3 and 4).

 

 

A FOUR-STEP PROCESS

Our interdisciplinary project team analyses, structures and documents the current digital situation. The result of this analysis serves as a starting point for a digital strategy, which we then support in its implementation.

Step 1: Interview and Quick-Check

During an initial meeting with our health experts, you will complete a questionnaire (Quick-Check). This will establish your current situation, your guidelines and your objectives. We show you the potential we see.

Step 2: Analysis

Not only do we determine your digital status, but we also propose a possible digital transition strategy covering the areas of organisation, processes, technology, prevention and data management. 

Step 3: Measurements

Together, we work out the ideal solution for your digital processes. This is based on our preliminary analysis. We set priorities and establish the necessary contacts.

Step 4: Implementation

We support you in coordinating and implementing the individual measures proposed by the Drees & Sommer team.

YOUR BENEFITS

  • A transparent review of all areas of the hospital: organisation, medical and administrative processes, technology, prevention and data management. 
  • In-depth knowledge of the degree of digitalisation of your institution
  • A clear and early digital strategy for your institution
  • Long-term safety for your facility, your staff and your patients
  • Saves time and costs for later phases of project development

REALLOCATION CONCEPTS FOR HOSPITALS

The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to the uncertain future of many health facilities. The question of their overcrowding in relation to population densities is likely to become increasingly relevant, especially as they are under severe financial pressure due to shorter lengths of stay and declining public funding. In the future, the question of the use of empty buildings will become more important, and there is a need to consider appropriate uses.

PROCUREMENT STRATEGY FOR HOSPITALS AND CLINICS

The requirements of the contractors to secure hospital construction projects are such that they often risk failure. In any case, the need to control construction costs and to have insurance against risk makes decision-making more difficult. The choice of a procurement model often plays a decisive role in how a project can be optimised. Our experts identify suitable contracting strategies and support you throughout the process.

SECURE CONCEPTS FOR CLINICS

The COVID-19 pandemic has intensely demonstrated the fundamental role of hospitals, clinics and medical practices in our society. It is therefore of the utmost importance to minimise the risk of deficits or failures in such properties. This is even a legal obligation for clinics with a public service mission.
