Enhancing patient care is critical to the success of your healthcare facility. One of the first steps towards ensuring this in your hospital is establishing effective communication and increasing process efficiency. Without effective communication and better efficiency on your healthcare floor, care workflows can be disrupted because of overlooked errors. Medical errors are the [3rd leading cause](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28186008/) of death in the US.

However, with the rise of the internet of things, creating more effective communication and higher efficiency in hospitals is easier than it has ever been. IoT-enabled medical devices provide your workers and patients with a smoother exchange of insightful data. Implementing insightful data into your hospital allows healthcare staff and patients to communicate more effectively and improve efficiency. This smoother exchange of data from technology allows your nurses to perform their jobs more effectively. In fact, [82%](https://avanthealthcare.com/blog/articles/how-technology-is-impacting-nursing-practice-in-2019.stml#:~:text=In%20the%20nursing%20field%2C%20technology,technology%20positively%20impacts%20patient%20care.) of nurses believe technology positively impacts patient care. Additionally, approximately [90%](https://www.icanotes.com/2018/12/11/how-mobile-devices-impact-patient-satisfaction/) of healthcare organizations have implemented or are planning to implement some kind of mobile device initiative.
