CapitalCare Norwood

Executive Summary
CapitalCare Norwood is a post-acute, palliative and long-term care facility in the heart of Edmonton that embraces patient freedom and independence. During a large-scale redevelopment project of the facility’s newest building, the Gene Zwozdesky Centre, staff sought a technology provider that could help protect and support patients without compromising operational efficiency.
Business Challenge
Amid CapitalCare Norwood’s massive 40,000m² expansion, organization leaders wanted to integrate multiple systems for patients and caregivers into the new Gene Zwozdesky Centre. Cutting-edge time-management, collaboration, communication and patient-tracking systems would all be necessary at the healthcare center to keep patients safe and satisfied.
Solution
CapitalCare Norwood enlisted the help of PX Solutions to provide and implement stateof-the-art technologies throughout the Gene Zwozdesky Centre. These solutions include: Jeron 790, a reliable Leading edge nurse call system for patient-staff communication across 205 beds; Elpas, a real-time, patient-monitoring and tracking system and Primex, a time-management system that synchronizes all clocks onsite.
Project Highlights
Once PX Solutions fully deploys its technology, the Gene Zwozdesky Centre will possess the following:
- Cohesively integrated nurse call, time-management, communication and patient-tracking systems
- One of the most advanced and reliable healthcare communication systems in Canada
- Portable ventilators with alarms that can instantly locate active patients
- Streamlined processes for staff
Results
Thanks to the partnership between PX Solutions and CapitalCare Norwood, the Gene Zwozdesky Centre is set to become a safe, exceptional environment for patients needing long-term, palliative and post-acute healthcare. Not only will the new, united systems offer residents greater independence at the facility, but it will also give patients and their families peace of mind in the quality of their care. Equipped with PX Solutions’ technology, CapitalCare Norwood is now raising the bar for patient satisfaction and staff efficiency throughout the healthcare industry.
