Background: Providing good quality patient care is challenging in today's busy healthcare environment. Faster response times to patient calls have been shown to reduce the risk of falls, length of stay (LOS), and improve patient satisfaction. One hospital, Mackenzie Health has implemented a new "smart' pilot unit with various Internet of Things (IOT) connected technologies with the goal of improving care. Methods: Data collected by the new system was statistically compared to historic data to determine the impact. A discrete simulation model was also built to explore further potential improvements in how patient calls could be routed. Results: Mean and median call response times improved by ∼5% and ∼31% respectively. Employing alternative call routing strategies can further improve response times and nurse travel distances. Conclusion: This study lends evidence to the argument that the adoption of ubiquitous smart technology in healthcare can improve operations and reduce inefficiencies.
