A smart room experience that sets you apart
Building a new smart hospital or smart room in a hospital presents the opportunity to create market differentiation and grow market share. In planning for new construction, many organizations think about offering state-of-the-art clinical technology, and increasingly organizations are also thinking about the patient’s experience as a differentiator.
Meet patient needs through smart room technology
The building of a new tower for a health system is an investment that brings that health system distinction and market differentiation. It is an opportunity to invest in cutting-edge clinical technology and architectural design to attract patients and talent..
But while there is no shortage of transformative clinical technology, much of the industry continues to struggle to provide some of the most basic comforts to patients in a modern way.
Smart patient rooms in hospitals:
- Elevate the patient experience through consumer-grade self-service
- Accommodate patient and family needs while also encouraging engagement
- Provide opportunities for multi-stakeholder engagement, improving transparency and communication
- Enable top-of-license care through automation of many aspects of patient education
- Streamline in-room hardware and seamlessly connects to other HIT systems
- Capture downstream loyalty and creates stickiness with the health system
Design a smarter patient experience today.

Spotlight on intentional innovation
Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital, one of two hospitals in the Ontario-based Mackenzie Health regional healthcare system, is the first smart hospital in Canada.
The new Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital features fully integrated smart technology systems and medical devices. Smart technology throughout the facility is powered by GetWell Inpatient and enables the facility to provide a superior patient experience that supports real-time information exchange.
With GetWell Inpatient fully integrated, patients at Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital have greater control over their care and are able to access education and information about their care, enabling an improved patient experience. GetWell Inpatient allows staff to spend less time on non-clinical tasks like paperwork. It also supports real-time capture of patient data, helping to improve the efficiency of workflows and allow for more direct patient care.
Learn more about Mackenzie Health and Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital and their decision to open a smart hospital in this roundtable discussion with Get Well’s President, Nikia Bergan.
Bring the smart patient experience to mobile devices
Increase the reach of patient engagement technologies through a mobile-first strategy that enables patients to access education, concierge services, care team information, and post-discharge support on their mobile devices.
Offering the smart patient experience on mobile devices also gives organizations the ability to provide a consistent patient experience across an entire healthcare system, fostering brand recognition and mitigating the need for a significant capital investment.
