Electronic Medical Record (EMR) -Within a hospital environment Hôpitel can facilitate and display an EMR on a patient TV/Terminal
at bedside. Having an the EMR available at bedside on the patient TV/Terminal for medical staff to access for emergency situations can be
advantageous in providing emergency care to patients where the hospital has digitized the patient's medical records. Since the EMR can be a
mission critical application when in use in a medical emergency situation, Hôpitel developed an automated diagnostic application that
monitors, detects and reports anomalies or failures that may occur on the TV/Terminal or the distribution network to maximize the system
performance. The data in the EMR can also assist medical personnel in empowering patients to get involved and engaged in their own
healthcare by having the ability to view their EMR or their X-Rays with a medical professional directly from their hospital bed.
Bed Status - The bed status application keeps track of whether housekeeping has completed preparing a bed to receive a patient. The

application works by providing housekeeping staff an application that uses the in-room TV/Terminal to provide a “bed status” menu. The
housekeeping staffs uses an IR remote specific to them to indicate the current state of the room – cleaning started, cleaning finished, needs
maintenance etc. This information is then communicated to bed management so that they can manage bed availability in real time, making
the whole process more efficient. Phone calls to nursing floors and housekeeping to determine bed status are eliminated.
PatientCamTM Security (Nursing) - The *PatientCamTM system provides bi-directional video access for both patients and medical
Games - Nothing provides a better distraction to the patient than simple but engaging games. Chess, checkers, card games all
provide the patient an effective means of passing the time while they are confined to the hospital bed.
personnel working in parallel with Nurse Call Systems assisting Medical Personnel (Doctors, Nurses, Attendants) in establishing the patient’s
physical status, priority of responses to patients and critical situations in addition to providing valuable information to medical staff and
hospital administrators to help reduce hospital liabilities and potential insurance claims. This system is configured not to record any data to
insure patient privacy.
Medical Educational Programming On-Demand - Video based educational content on medical conditions, pain
PatientCamTM Security (Systems) - The **PatientCamTM Security application embedded throughout the hospital enhances hospital
management etc. can be accessed on demand by multiple patients or care givers concurrently at times convenient to them.
During the presence of medical staff (nursing, doctor, lab/blood work staff) the video can be paused and viewing completed later.
Delivery of educational content may be tracked against the patient or the care giver so that the success of the content may be
measured. Nursing involvement is reduced, helping with overall patient care.
Snack/Food Ordering - The TV/Terminal can be used to order a snack or food for a visiting family member. Hospitals
implementing this enjoy a revenue opportunity while increasing overall patient satisfaction. In some hospitals items can be
ordered from the concession vendors (Tim Hortons, Second Cup, Variety Store, Subway)
PatientCamTM Security (Patients)-The *PatientCamTM Security system for patient wards provides bi-directional video
access for both patients and medical personnel working in parallel with *Nurse Call Systems providing patients an enhanced
sense of care and in-room security. The PatientCamTM Security system also has integrated patient privacy features which are
designed to ensure compliance to Canadian privacy laws.

security and communication systems by reducing outsourced headcount and replacing manual, inefficient systems verifications with a
solutioncomprising of automated diagnostic processes which substantially increases system performance levels. With the reduction of
outsourcedheadcount PatientCamTM Security generates a substantial revenue opportunity for the hospital by providing an estimated minimum
of*$100,000 to *$400,000 of surplus funds per year which enables hospitals to acquire other technology systems which are in high
demand for patients, hospital staff and administrators. Additionally PatientCamTM Security enhances ROI’s on existing personnel and security
assets while reducing maintenance, TCO and insurance liabilities.
Hospital Staff Training - The training and development of all Health Care staff is one of every hospital’s top priorities and ongoing
concerns. One way for a hospital to ensure that their staff’s skills and knowledge are kept well up to date so that patients are given the best
possible care is to utilize the MeditelTM MMM System for staff training. This Hôpitel training application has proven itself in the field to help
nurses and healthcare assistants to easily focus on the training and development of their skills due to its ease of access throughout the
hospital. Another communication application for the Meditel TM MMM System is the ability to distribute information and notices throughout
the hospital in a Billboard Information format for both the patients and staff on pre-designated channels.
PatientCam Videoconferencing/Video Messaging - The PatientCamTM system can also be used for patient
Automated Capture of Patient Vitals - MeditelTM Vitals Capture is a fast, accurate automated process which captures and updates
videoconferencing, video messaging and instant messaging via the Internet. These applications for both young and older patients
allow family members from another city or country to stay in touch with their loved one while they are in the hospital. The
PatientCamTM system utilizes a camera built into the patient TV/Terminal which eliminates the need to bring another TV/Terminal
and camera mounted on a rolling cart into the patient’s room to facilitate the service. Mobile videoconferencing systems can only
be provided to patients when the hospital supplier representative is on duty and takes up precious space in the patient room
being used by patients, care givers and medical personnel.
patient vitals that makes timely data available to physicians and nurses quickly and efficiently. Vital sign data is among the most granular
information that clinicians assess on a daily basis. Yet, all too often, there's a lag between data capture and data sharing. That's because
typically a nurse or patient-care technician must manually capture and write down vital signs and then transcribe those statistics onto various
charts and/or enter them manually into healthcare information systems. The result: unacceptable and avoidable delay between the recording
of the data and the time the data is available electronically for a physician to view and analyze the data. In addition, the manual transcription
can potentially introduce errors into the process.
Support Group Programming- Hôpitel is currently in the process of setting up a Healthcare Support Group Programming
Network throughout all 68 hospitals we service within the provinces of Québec and Ontario. This is being done in collaboration
with many healthcare support group organizations across Canada in order to help patients cope with their illnesses from
diagnosis through treatment and recovery by viewing other patients share their stories and learn from their experiences from
the patient rooms on the Meditel Healthcare Network.
*Subject to Nurse Call System compatibility. **Estimated $100,000 to *$400,000 of surplus funds per year based on 2 to 5 merged hospital security systems.
