MANCHESTER, NH--(Marketwire - April 1, 2009) - Kelley Carr, president, Custom Solutions
Group for Cellular Specialties, Inc. (CSI) -- a recognized leader in the
design and implementation of in-building wireless products and solutions --
has been selected as a feature speaker at the HIMSS09 Annual Conference and
Exhibition, McCormick Place Convention Center, Chicago, IL. Carr's
presentation, "Hospital Wireless Deployment: Challenges & Solutions," will
be held at the Wireless and Mobility Theater (Booth # 5859), Sunday, April
5, 2:15 - 3:00PM. In addition, CSI will be showcasing their wireless,
in-building solutions at HIMSS09 (Booth # 1137).
Healthcare Information Technology (HIT) is playing an ever-expanding role
in the transformation of healthcare delivery, and HIMSS is leading the way.
As an internationally respected voice, HIMSS teams up with organizations to
advance and drive continued progress for the healthcare IT industry
worldwide.
With mobile devices fast becoming one of the primary methods of
communication and accessing data by caregivers, in-building wireless
coverage is a necessity. Given the challenge of overcoming nonexistent or
poor wireless signal quality in basements, stairwells and across campus
environments, healthcare organizations are constantly seeking
cost-effective solutions for ensuring ubiquitous wireless communications.
Carr's presentation will present plausible solutions to address these
issues while outlining the common -- and not so common -- pitfalls to avoid
while deploying.
With numerous wireless installations throughout the healthcare industry,
CSI stands out from other vendors as the only in-building wireless vendor
approved by all the major wireless carriers -- a pedigree that greatly
simplifies installation and helps reduce project costs. The company's
innovative system design also allows healthcare organizations such as
Scottsdale's Health and Mercy Healthcare, to leverage existing cabling
infrastructure without sacrificing future scalability as the institution's
technical requirements evolve. CSI's knowledge and expertise of the
ordinances implemented since 9/11 (all new buildings are required to have
antennas to support police and fire radio frequencies) ensure that all new
facilities follow code.
"Ubiquitous wireless communications are a 'must have' utility for
healthcare environments," Carr said. "CSI has the expertise to ensure full
wireless coverage regardless of carrier, building construction or distance.
We are looking forward to imparting the best practices that have helped
other healthcare facilities achieve full in-building wireless
communications."
