Hope Johnson, Administrator Perioperative Services, Lehigh Valley Health Network has deployed the Vocera Ease app to facilitate updates for family members about patient progress in surgery.  Since they began implementing this solution in 2017, LVNH was prepared for the increased restrictions from COVID-19 on the ability of doctors and nurses to communicate about patient status.  In addition to using this app for surgery patients, value is also being seen in situations requiring lengthy procedures or for patients in intensive care.
