Winola Lake Relieves Burden of Maintaining Doylestown Hospital Cart Fleet
Company’s Mobility Medic Cart Services Provides Battery Cell Upgrade to Existing
Cart Fleet
Pipersville, PA – October 14, 2011 – When the IT department
at Doylestown Hospital found that much of the team’s time was dedicated to
maintaining the hospital’s existing cart fleet, they went in search of a
solution to relieve the drain on their labor resources without draining the
budget.
They chose Winola Lake, a provider of IT and point of care technology
solutions to hospitals and healthcare organizations, and its Mobility Medic
Cart Services to rehabilitate their carts.
"With the help of Winola Lake, our ability to support patient care has
increased with a well maintained fleet of computer carts; additionally, the
burden on our IT team has been relieved allowing the team to focus on other
areas of patient care support" said Rick Lang, vice-president and CIO at
Doylestown Hospital. "Our Mobility Medic Cart Services are specifically
designed to enable hospitals like Doylestown to get their carts back to the
point of care so they can help improve the patient experience" said
Richard Hodge, president and CEO of Winola Lake.
Winola Lake engineers went to Doylestown Hospital, located in Doylestown, Pennsylvania,
to perform a battery cell upgrade for the mobile computer cart fleet to keep the
carts performing like new.
Winola Lake Mobility Medic supports all manufacturers’ point of care
products and can drive 99% uptime for devices through an onsite or
Winola-hosted spares pool. Winola
Lake also provides
proactive cart care through scheduled weekly, monthly or bi-monthly service
visits, along with asset management, service history reports and warranty
tracking to prevent cart fleets from reaching their breaking point.
