AZ Zeno will renovate the right wing of its Blankenberge campus in the coming years. This wing will house a brand-new outpatient clinic, bringing together ophthalmology, stomatology, ENT (ear, nose, and throat), and plastic surgery. "Our Blankenberge campus should have the same look and feel as the campus in Knokke-Heist."
Bart Dewaele, Care Director at AZ Zeno, explains: "As part of the broader renovation plan, we are currently modernizing our outpatient clinic, formerly the intensive care unit, based on the vision we also applied to the campus in Knokke. With lots of light and white tones, complemented by supportive technology for the nursing staff. Like the smart lighting technology of LynX® lifeline, which I find truly brilliant. For nurses and doctors, it immediately shows where they need to be in case of problems."
"I believe 25-8 perfectly contributes to what we stand for as a hospital: leveraging technological innovation to improve the comfort of both caregivers and patients," adds Bart Dewaele.
In addition, the lighting also serves as emergency lighting and can guide the way to emergency exits or patients needing resuscitation during evacuations. For the outpatient clinic, AZ Zeno is also the first to choose LynX® first: a person-following call system instead of a traditional room-bound system. When a patient activates an alarm, LynX® first’s localization technology always informs the nursing departments exactly where the call originates, regardless of the patient’s current location.
"The outpatient clinic offers the opportunity to test our integrated solution in a small-scale setting, after which we hope to roll it out further once the hospital is fully renovated," concludes Dante Meulemeester, Senior Business Consultant at 25-8.
