Royal Philips, a global leader in health technology, and the Dutch Rijnstate Hospital have signed a new 10-year strategic partnership agreement to jointly develop the ‘hospital of the future’.
The new hospital concept will use the latest monitoring and connected health technologies to expand its delivery of care from the hospital to a regional care network, including the home.
At the heart of this new concept will be a ‘virtual care coordination centre’, an advanced central command hub, from where care providers will remotely monitor the health of patients both inside and outside the hospital.
