How ThingsBoard powers the Multi-Specialty Hospital?
Real-time asset tracking
BLE beacons and WiFi integration provide sub-meter accuracy for 500+ items, showing locations on interactive floor plans. Staff access via mobile app cuts search time from 30 minutes to 2, reducing downtime by 50%. Visual heatmaps highlight idle assets for redistribution.
Patient monitoring and safety
Wearable tags track movements, alerting for unauthorized zones or falls. Integrated with vital sensors, it supports 200 patients daily, cutting elopement incidents by 40% and enabling quick reunions.
Dashboard visualization
Custom widgets display live maps, telemetry, and analytics across departments. Nurses view asset status (onsite/offsite) instantly, improving utilization by 35% and supporting data-driven procurement.
Automated alerts and reporting
Rule chains trigger SMS/email for low battery or overdue returns, with historical reports analyzing trends. This slashed lost assets by 30%, optimizing 80-bed capacity.
How ThingsBoard helps healthcare improve operations with IoT?
Rule Engine
Processes telemetry to trigger actions like alarms for asset misuse, automating workflows that reduced manual checks by 60%. Custom chains filter data for efficiency in high-volume settings.

Asset hierarchies
Organizes devices into logical groups (e.g., by ward), enabling bulk management and inheritance of rules, simplifying oversight for 80-bed facilities.

Dashboarding
Interactive visualizations with maps and charts provide role-based views, empowering staff with instant insights and cutting response times by 50%.

Alarms and security
Configurable notifications via SMS/email, plus RBAC and encryption, ensure secure, proactive operations, preventing breaches while scaling seamlessly.
