WD Patient
Transport benefits for all
concerned in the PTS cycle:
For the Control Room

fleet and wireless job control for despatch with no change
to the existing despatch system saves both time and
money.
- Patient transport records can be
stored digitally with individual collection and arrival
times.
- Improved data capture and quality of
service reporting.
- Ad hoc transport requests can be
handled more efficiently with total visibility of the
whereabouts of the vehicle
fleet.
For the
Driver and Patient
- Automatic satellite navigation to the
door prevents delays and wasted time.
- No paperwork and no need for mobile
phone or radio despatching provides a safer, more efficient
service.
T@lecoms' Managing Director Jan Ohara
believes that WD Patient
Transport offers an instant route
to efficiency in PTS:
" We have structured
our service so that any existing despatch system can be
wireless enabled within a day at no capital cost. The service
including the drivers equipment is simple to operate and is
provided on an affordable monthly subscription basis which is
proving very popular with Ambulance Services in the NHS and
private sector. With WD Patient Transport
both types of organisations can use the same
system so a typical subcontract operation can be wirelessly
monitored and despatched as if it were an NHS service. With a
low monthly rental the system pays for itself from savings and
efficiency gains, and enables accurate data capture for
quality of service reporting."
