Better patient care for our regional & remote communities.
Extend the reach and effectiveness of healthcare in Australia’s remote and rural areas.
In remote areas, escalations can have a significant impact on patient well-being through separation from the community. Vein-finding devices can support healthcare services by increasing the success of first-time access attempts, enhancing patient care, reducing discomfort, and saving time and resources leading to increased clinician satisfaction.
How vein finding technology can assist in rural and remote locations:
Enhanced Patient Care
Accurate vein visualisation can assist healthcare providers locate suitable veins for various medical procedures such as blood tests, intravenous (IV) line insertion, and administering medication in a timely manner, reducing the stress, discomfort and complications associated with multiple attempts to gain access.
Improved Patient Access
Patients in remote and rural areas often face challenges accessing healthcare services. Vein-finding devices can improve the capacity of rural healthcare facilities to diagnose and treat medical conditions promptly and can be operated by a broad range of healthcare professionals, including nurses and paramedics. This can make it easier to deliver care in areas reliant on small medical teams.
Time and Cost Savings
Vein finding devices can save time for both healthcare providers and patients. In rural areas, where medical resources may be limited, efficient vein identification can help reduce the time spent locating veins, avoiding valves and expedite the delivery of care while reducing likelihood of wasted supplies due to missed vein access attempts.
Outreach Programs
Mobile clinics and outreach programs in remote areas can benefit significantly from vein finding devices, as they allow healthcare teams to provide essential services in challenging environments.
Minimise Complications
Accurate vein access can help avoid complications such as infiltration (IV fluids leaking into surrounding tissues), phlebitis (inflammation of the vein), localised swelling and bleeding leading to bruising that can arise from improper vein punctures and damage to valves.
Improved Patient Satisfaction
When patients receive efficient and painless care, their overall satisfaction with healthcare services tends to increase, building trust in the healthcare practitioner and the rural healthcare system.
