|
The advantages of unified communications systems are set to be demonstrated in the virtual environment as one future hospital campus takes shape in Second Life. A simulation of a real hospital set to be constructed in San Diego by 2011, the virtual facility will allow online visitors to investigate the technological innovations set to be used in the real world healthcare centre - including the unified communication platform to be used. For instance, the uses of such a system in achieving smooth patient and healthcare provider communications is made clear by the simulation, hospitaliteurope.com reports. "A radiologist can locate specialists, contact them on their phones, laptops or PDAs and initiate a desktop collaboration session to review and consult on patient scan images thanks to the network that links picture archiving systems with communications tools," the news provider states. Meanwhile, Fox Business has reported on a growing trend for healthcare providers to save "critical time" in using unified communications solutions as a means of enhancing productivity in a demanding environment - an example that many businesses might be well advised to follow.
