Sentillion’s technology expedites the sign-on and sign-off process for six McKesson modules, two Cerner applications and a variety of other clinical, non-clinical, and homegrown programs. It has also been adapted to support Eisenhower’s clinical workflow.
Elimination of multiple usernames and passwords were the driving forces behind Eisenhower’s decision to implement the new software.
What really got our attention was Sentillion’s Launchpad tool, said Walter Seay, manager of new technologies at Eisenhower. We realized that this toolbar interface, in conjunction with Sentillion’s single sign-on capabilities, would provide the ideal platform to implement the solution we had in mind.
To support repetitive functions, certain tasks have been automated and made available through single Launchpad buttons. For example, prior to Sentillion, the completion of a single task might require a nurse to sign on to the workstation and an application, navigate through several different screens, input information, print the result, and then remember to sign out.
Today they sign on once, click one button on the desktop, input information and they’re done. Everything else happens automatically and securely, said Mr Seay.
