Panasonic, a provider of professional plasma and LCD display and digital signage solutions, today announced the release of a white paper exploring the role modern flat panel display technology can play in supporting the core mission of hospitals and other healthcare facilities to improve patient experience and care outcomes. The report is being released during the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Annual Conference & Exhibition, February 20 – 24, 2012 in Las Vegas, NV and will be available exclusively at the Panasonic booth (#3907) during the show. Following HIMSS, the white paper can be downloaded from the Panasonic website.

The white paper “Digital Concierge: Flat Panel Display Technologies In Hospital Settings Serve As Ubiquitous Point Of Interaction Among Patients, Families, Healthcare Professionals And Hospital Administration,” highlights the growing market and application examples for professional display technology in healthcare. The study, authored by BizTechReports, found growing evidence that taking a strategic and integrated approach to deploying a professional display solution, in tandem with other clinical and digital signage applications, creates a real value proposition for hospitals and healthcare facilities.

In today’s hospitals, where new health reform guidelines and value-added functionality like digital signage and clinical display applications are transforming the healthcare display space, even consumer-grade flat-panels are not enough. Advances in technology and evolving hospital and healthcare missions have created a paradigm shift for hospital administrators, facilities directors and other decision-makers, who now are investing in hospital-grade display solutions that extend beyond the basic entertainment function.

“Panasonic recognizes the power and potential of professional display technology. In today’s high-tech hospital environments, professional displays can be leveraged to increase communication and collaboration hospital-wide,” noted Brian Simmons, Panasonic Healthcare Area Sales Manager. ”Panasonic commissioned this white paper, in an attempt to share a deeper understanding of how digital signage and display technology can impact a healthcare organization, with healthcare administrators, IT managers, AV departments and stakeholders.

Whether hospital-grade or professional, flat panel displays are not simply tools for infotainment or digital signage. These displays represent an opportunity for healthcare providers to engage with patients and their families to advance the core mission of a hospital facility, which is of course, to take care of patients and help them to achieve healthy outcomes.
