NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst, based in Queens, NY, launched Connexient’s MediNav Digital Wayfinding and Patient Experience solution earlier this year. MediNav provides patients, visitors and staff with compelling Indoor Maps, Indoor GPS, Turn-by-Turn directions, and Location-based Content. MediNav is a native application for iPhone and Android smartphones, as well as a unique in-hospital kiosk solution for arriving visitors and patients.
“After reviewing a number of solutions, we unanimously decided to go with Connexient’s superior indoor mapping platform,” said Dimitra Limperopoulos, associate director of operations at NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst. “Connexient has a strong vision and roadmap to integrate and extend the benefits of Indoor Mapping and Location-based Services across the hospital network.”
“We are thrilled at the opportunity to enhance NYC Health + Hospital/ Elmhurst’s Patient Experience,” said CEO Mark Green. “MediNav will provide Elmhurst patients and visitors with a compelling Wayfinding experience, with the use of ‘Near 3D’ Indoor Maps and Turn-by-Turn directions to any destination inside the hospital. Connexient’s API will also ensure that over time Elmhurst can integrate their Indoor Maps and Location-based Services into other applications and IT infrastructure.”
Connexient is dedicated to creating innovative Indoor Mapping, Digital Wayfinding and Indoor Location-based Services Solutions for healthcare and other enterprise verticals to improve the patient and visitor experience, increase staff and operational productivity, and reduce costs.
