CAREt Bar Code Point of Care and Medication Administration

CAREt System Bedside Point of Care Wireless Handheld

The CAREt Handheld devices were designed by the nurses who actually use them.

Introducing
"Smart Hardware"

  • More than software — Hardware and software are tightly integrated into a custom nursing workflow tool
  • Less to support — Why live with off-the-shelf hardware and multiple operating systems?
  • The smart alternative — Fewer support problems, and a form factor and workflow that nurse users will thank you for
