Schneider Electric and CHI partner to enable healthcare innovation

The Australian Centre for Health Innovation (CHI) and Schneider Electric have reached a partnership agreement that will enable hands-on interaction with Schneider’s intelligent, integrated healthcare technologies.

The CHI will display Schneider’s EcoStruxure integrated architecture to showcase its capabilities across the sector.

“Through this partnership, over 6500 yearly visitors to the centre such as clinicians, health administrators and clinical IT professionals will be able to interact first hand with Schneider Electric’s innovative healthcare infrastructure solution at a direct interface within the clinical environment,” said Glen Scott, national healthcare manager, Schneider Electric.

Through the partnership, Schneider will market test its newly introduced solutions and have the opportunity to demonstrate its expertise in the healthcare sector. It will also enable Schneider to focus on the key areas of improving healthcare productivity and efficiencies.

“We are delighted to welcome Schneider Electric on board at CHI, and we look forward to working with the organisation in an ongoing partnership, which we see as benefiting both parties as well as future healthcare developments in Australia,” said Susan Harrison, general manger, CHI.

The Australian Centre for Health Innovation facilitates testing and simulation for service improvements adopted in patient care, health administration and safety across Australia and New Zealand healthcare facilities. Schneider Electric’s solutions are already being showcased and functional at CHI.
