RTLS Asset Management Optimization
PIH (Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Angeles) had a legacy asset tracking and temperature monitoring system that was not well utilized or maintained. PIH needed a partner to help them regain value from their RTLS investment. Vizzia Technologies was selected as the outsourced partner to help the hospital manage this important operational upgrade.
“The Vizzia partnership has been exceptionally valuable to PIH, Good Samaritan Hospital. Their advanced RTLS technology and dedicated support team have delivered significant operational benefits to our team – saving us time and ensuring our medications are safe and our equipment is better utilized for patient care.”

PIH’s Benefits with Vizzia Solutions
For several years, PIH leadership has engaged in a close partnership with Vizzia Technologies, to optimize their legacy asset-tracking technology.
The Vizzia team led efforts to deploy an advanced RTLS solution, featuring the InVIEW℠ software platform, for a fully managed asset management solution.
PIH continues to experience the following benefits:
- Find equipment quickly: personnel can locate equipment immediately when needed. With reliable, real-time visibility, there’s no need for equipment hoarding by PIH staff.
- Eliminate lost and stolen equipment: Real-time alerts enable PIH staff to know when a high-value asset leaves a designated area or exits the hospital, so they can keep things where they want.
- Prevent hospital-acquired infections: Software helps PIH know when assets are due for maintenance. This helps keep patients safe by making sure PIH’s equipment is cleaned after every use.
- Right-size your fleet: With easy-to-find assets and in-depth data about utilization rates, PIH can rent and buy only the equipment they truly need.
- Happier staff, happier patients: Less time looking for equipment by PIH means more time for patient care—and more satisfied patients and staff.
- Automatic environmental monitoring: PIH’s ability to capture temperature and humidity readings of critical care rooms and refrigerators to ensure medications, lab samples and blood are always kept at safe and recommended conditions.
