Optimize your healthcare facility with smart lighting

There are all types of rooms and occupants in healthcare facilities—each with their own unique needs—and managing these differing needs is essential to the running of an efficient healthcare facility. With IoT-enabled connected lighting, you can transform your hospital or clinic into a state-of-the-art smart facility that improves staff experience and patient care and lets you manage your maintenance effectively. In addition to improving your facility’s cost-efficiency, making the switch to green lighting can help you achieve a healthy building

accreditation—such as the WELL Building Standard.

Patient rooms

Boost patient experience and support throughput time with task-adaptable lighting recipes that match workflow and support patient recovery. With circadian lighting, patients experience a healthier sleep-wake cycle and recover faster.

Corridors

Improve patient and visitor satisfaction and safety by enabling guiding lights during the night that minimize glare, avoid sleep disturbance, and provide visual comfort. You'll also increase revenue by supporting patient throughput and visitor navigation in the facility.
Waiting areas

Reduce anxiety by setting lighting scenes that help people feel at ease. Support reduction of missed appointments by implementing a complex in-building navigation system powered by sensors in your lighting infrastructure.

Nurses stations

Luminaires that mirror natural light energize and refocus staff, leading to faster emergency responses and decreased risk of errors related to medication dispensing. You'll create a safer workplace and improved staff experiences overall.
Consultation rooms

Support clinical workflow and increase patient safety with task-adaptable lighting. Remote monitoring and predictive maintenance also ensure you maintain the required level of light at all times.

Clinical focus areas

Safely perform medical tests and procedures with best-in-class lighting specifically designed for operating rooms, ICUs, imaging rooms, clean rooms, labs, and other technical spaces.
Other areas

Strengthen your facility's visibility and brand and increase feelings of safety with high-quality, energy-efficient façade, area, path, and parking lighting.

Improve patient and staff well-being

Improve patient recovery rates and staff well-being with human-centric lighting recipes. Lighting plays a vital role in the lives of patients staying for multiple days or nurses working long night shifts. Counteract stress, fatigue, and disrupted sleep patterns with luminaires that mirror the human circadian rhythm.

Achieve your sustainability goals

Interact connects tunable luminaires, motion sensors, and other assets to minimize energy usage, provide you with valuable data on your facility, and help you cut down on carbon emissions. Switching to LED lighting can reduce lighting-related energy consumption by around 60%. When that lighting is connected and properly managed with Interact, those savings can reach up to 80%.

Make your facility easy to navigate

Increase traffic flow and patient turnover, save your staff valuable time, boost operational efficiency, and improve patient satisfaction with Interact indoor navigation and real-time location software. With indoor wayfinding, you reduce instances of missed appointments, staff interruptions, and patient dissatisfaction, decreasing stress levels for everyone.

Optimize space and track assets

Real-time occupancy monitoring with detailed analytics provides information on how spaces are used. From heat mapping and people counting to route planning and real-time asset tracking, Interact provides you with granular insights into your facility. With this information, you can increase operational efficiency, streamline maintenance, and direct resources according to your priorities.
