Hear from our Clients
"Given our limited IT resources and competing priorities, we knew we could not host a solution ourselves. As a cloud-hosted solution, the MedSitter solution allowed us to get up and running quickly and smoothly. It was one of the smoothest technical and operational implementations we have had."
Alex Nason | Director of IT and Innovation, Frederick Health
"MedSitter positively improves patient safety. Through continuous remote monitoring, it prevents diverting staff resources to do one-on-one observations, which allows more staff on the unit. Families also have comfort in knowing their loved one is being closely monitored."
Kathy Scipione | Nursing Director, Hunterdon Medical Center
"Our team as found MedSitter useful for patient safety, staff safety, family dynamics, patient companionship (our patients interact well with the monitoring techs), and most recently, the system has been utilized for observing the donning and doffing of PPE. The team at MedSitter are amazing to work with. They are communicative and supportive."
Sonya Wood-Johnson | Quality Assurance Manager, Good Shepherd Penn Partners Specialty Hospital
“Patient safety is a top priority for Finger Lakes Health. Like other facilities nationwide, Geneva General Hospital and Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hospital are always working to allocate staffing resources as effectively as we can and to utilize all the tools at our disposal to enhance patient outcomes. We instituted MedSitter as a tool to support our staff, assure an extra layer of safety for our patients, reduce the risk of falls, and provide enhanced monitoring. Since adopting MedSitter, the service has assisted us in avoiding potential falls by serving as a liaison between patients and our staff. Our patients, families, and staff have responded positively to having this extra peace of mind.”
Ardelle Bigos MSN, RN, CMSRN, NE-BC, Chief Nursing Officer | Geneva General Hospital
