The Regional Hospital of Antofagasta in Chile is one of the most recent examples of the implementation in newly created infrastructures of the DietTools software developed by DOMINION. Among its characteristics, the constructed area of the new center is 123,118 square meters, housing 45 consulting rooms, 24 emergency rooms and 671 beds, among other facilities.
In addition, this hospital centre benefits a population of 260,000 people and increases the availability of beds in the region, with hospital infrastructure and medical equipment of high level and complexity.
DietTools software, the latest technology
And it couldn't be any other way, the Antofagasta Hospital also had to rely on the latest digital technology in the field of the management of all dietary needs, thanks to the DietTools software.
"The implementation of DietTools has required the integration with the new information systems of the centre to collect the demographic data of hospitalized patients, the delivery of dietary consumption to the address and the dietary prescription from nursing".
