ReadyOp is unique in providing the ability for patient tracking for hospitals and first responders. Authorized personnel use the ReadyOp Forms phone application to scan and upload barcoded items such as triage tags and other identifying labels. All scanned information is encrypted and uploaded to a single secure ReadyOp silo along with the time, date and location of the scanning action. The uploaded information creates a record that can be easily searched and used for directing patient movement, family reunification and for recording location and movement actions.
