Settings and Tours

The physical structure will have four walls, which will display devices and systems that contribute to improved patient care, safety, workflow and/or productivity because of interoperability.

Three of the walls demonstrate specific devices and systems within a clinical scenario. The scenario is summarized below. Further down, each step in the scenario is described in greater detail by the company providing the device/system.

Three clinical "sites" are provided: OR, ICU, Step Down (SD). Visitors will participate in tours that start in one of these three areas and proceed to the next (OR to ICU, ICU to SD, SD to OR). Tours will rotate. Some devices/sytems participate in every tour that includes a site they participate in, while others rotate.

Docents will bring a group of visitors to the PCD structure and provide an introduction to the portion of the scenario they will see, and will seek a volunteer in the group to act as the patient for the demonstration.

Vendors will describe their contribution to interoperability, the benefits and the nature of their systems (see developing scripts, below)
