6. Key features
• User Authentication for Healthcare
Dell believes that increased security should not impede work flow, specifically the speed at which
users gain access to their data. At the end device, users can authenticate quickly waiving a
contactless smartcard that is integrated into the employee identification they already carry.
• Session Transfer
The single most important feature from a user’s perspective is the ability to roam from machine to
machine during the workday while maintaining application state between moves. This can greatly
enhance efficiency and satisfaction with IT systems.
• Location Awareness
The Connection Broker provides services that aid in efficiency and workflow through automatic
printer redirection and location/user rationalisation, opening up the EPR in a patient room to the
orders module of the patient in that room when a physician logs in, or the medication
administration module when a nurse logs in.
• Ease of use
A barrier to technology in healthcare is the adoption of technology by nurses and physicians. Dell’s
Mobile Clinical Computing Solution is easy to use and enhances medical staff workflow, thereby
promoting adoption.
