OhioHealth’s investment in healthcare innovation continues to set new standards, and the implementation of smart hospital rooms at Pickerington Methodist Hospital is a testament to their forward-thinking approach. This cutting-edge initiative reimagines the patient experience, making care more connected, efficient, and personalized.

At Mid-City Electric, we are proud to have partnered with OhioHealth on this transformative project. Our team contributed by designing and implementing the advanced electrical and low-voltage systems that power these smart hospital rooms. Here, we delve into the key features of the project and our role in bringing them to life.

Transforming Patient Care with Smart Room Technology

OhioHealth’s smart hospital rooms represent a major leap in patient-centered care. These rooms are equipped with innovative features designed to enhance comfort and streamline communication:

  1. Personalized Environment Controls: Patients can use an intuitive tablet interface to adjust lighting, blinds, and entertainment systems, creating a space tailored to their preferences and fostering a healing atmosphere.

  2. Enhanced Communication Tools: Integrated systems allow patients to communicate directly with their care teams, reducing response times and improving overall satisfaction. Smart boards display key information, such as care plans and test updates, ensuring everyone stays informed.

  3. Support for Clinical Efficiency: Real-time data integration facilitates faster decision-making for care teams, enabling smoother workflows and better-coordinated care.

Mid-City Electric’s Contribution
