Austco Marketing & Service (Canada), a subsidiary of Austco Healthcare, has inked an AUD $7.4M contract to provide its advanced Tacera alarm management and clinical workflow solution for the forthcoming 548-bed St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver, British Columbia.

This contract signifies the most substantial single award in Austco Healthcare’s history, involving over 1,100 full IP patient stations, 1,200 clinical workflow terminals, and Webservices interfaces for EMR and RTLS system integrations.

Set to open its doors in 2026, the New St. Paul’s Hospital and Health Campus is currently under construction and promises to be a pivotal healthcare establishment.

This setup will ensure prompt notification and swift response from staff. A two-way audio system will further enhance real-time communication between patients and all healthcare personnel, fostering improved workflow, driving efficiencies, and mitigating risk.
