Red River, Rubbermaid Medical Solutions Partner to Provision Medical Carts with Integrated IT
CLAREMONT, N.H. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Red River, a widely recognized national leader in providing IT products
and services to government and healthcare sectors, and Rubbermaid
Medical Solutions (RMS), the leading provider of point-of-care computing
solutions for healthcare facilities, today announced they have partnered
to offer advanced IT integration of medical carts. Rubbermaid has long
been a provider of bedside medical equipment but now, through this
partnership with Red River, Rubbermaid offers an added component:
Configured IT that is integrated into the secure technology
infrastructure of hospital or medical facilities.
With Rubbermaid and Red River, medical carts can be linked to real-time
location systems to track their whereabouts. Carts can be linked to
wireless networks, VOIP, and even switching and routing systems, which
will ensure patient safety, security and the most-effective delivery of
medical care. In some cases, the medical facilities' IT infrastructure
was originally implemented by Red River, and the medical carts are a
mobile extension of that infrastructure.
Red River has quickly become a go-to IT provider to health care
organizations large and small with nearly 100 implementations completed.
Initially offering heath-care-focused IT products and services just in
New England, Red River has seen demand grow rapidly, and now counts
operations in multiple states.
"Red River views this expansion into health care as a natural extension
of what we have delivered in the government sector so successfully for
years," said Rick Bolduc, chief executive officer for Red River. "It's
enormously satisfying to be able to bring our IT expertise to the
delivery of high-quality patient care."
