Vocera to Showcase Enterprise Solutions for Communication and Collaboration at HIMSS16

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 18, 2016 -- Vocera Communications, Inc. (NYSE:VCRA), the leading healthcare communications company, will showcase the Vocera Communication Platform at the 2016 HIMSS Conference and Exhibition in Las Vegas, Feb. 29 through March 4, 2016. The enterprise-grade solution enables HIPAA-compliant communication via voice and secure text messaging on a variety of mobile devices. The Vocera Communication Platform also integrates with more than 70 clinical systems, including electronic health records, nurse call, and physiologic monitoring systems.

Vocera arrives at HIMSS16 with strong momentum after recently announcing the selection of its communication solutions at Franciscan Alliance and Massachusetts General Hospital. That energy will continue at HIMSS16 with two Vocera customers sharing their success stories at the health IT event.

On Wednesday, March 2, from 2:30-3:30 p.m. PT, Liz Michael, Vice President of Patient Care Services and Chief Nursing Officer at Stillwater Medical Center, will discuss how integrating communication technology with Stillwater’s computerized physician order entry system has improved patient, physician and care team experience. Lieutenant Colonel Francisco Dominicci, Chief Information Officer and Director of Health IT for the Colorado Springs Military Health System, will speak on Thursday, March 3, from 1-2 p.m. PT and share how Evans Army Community Hospital uses hands-free communication to improve care team collaboration, patient care, and safety.

"More than half a million healthcare workers around the world use Vocera solutions to quickly communicate, collaborate and deliver care,” said Brent Lang, President and CEO of Vocera. “HIMSS16, the largest meeting for healthcare IT leaders, is an ideal setting to showcase the positive global impact that Vocera’s enterprise communication solution is having on the healthcare experience for patients, families, nurses, physicians and other care team members.”
