Prestigious International Annual Awards Program Honors Standout Medical Technology Companies
MOUNT PROSPECT, Ill., May 08, 2025–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Rauland®, a global leader in healthcare clinical communications and workflow solutions, today announced that it has been selected for the second consecutive year as winner of the “Best Clinical Administration Hardware Device” award in the 9th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global digital health and medical technology market.
Rauland empowers healthcare teams to efficiently manage patient care, communicate fluently, and optimize clinician activities from a singular interface. Rauland’s Responder® platform simplifies, streamlines, and coordinates both daily activities and critical patient care for clinical staff. In particular, its Responder Nurse Call solution has been designed with a clinician-focus to enhance provider and patient satisfaction.
Rauland’s breakthrough Responder platform is extended by a variety of hardware devices to provide critical communication access to patients and staff where they need it, including related to fall prevention. The combination of patient stations, pillow speakers, and staff assist stations creates a safe, more responsive environment that enhances the patient experience and nurse efficiency.
Supporting clinical decision-making and helping reduce the cognitive burden experienced by clinicians, Rauland’s staff terminal provides customizable workflow options to meet the needs of varied patient care areas. Responder Converge elevates clinical efficiency further by tailoring workflow options based on the staff member(s) present in the patient room and identifying the locations of other care team members as needed for quick, easy communication.
Rauland’s solution also provides a centralized, real-time overview of patient requests across a unit, equipping clinical teams with the information required to take swift action and communicate with interdisciplinary care teams regarding patient status. Integrating with existing tertiary solutions, including real-time location systems, allows instantaneous insights into staff locations, enhancing personalized information delivery and the ability to refine patient care strategies.
“Security, scalability, and reliability are Rauland’s core pillars, and our teams continue working together to provide exceptional clinical communication and workflow solutions that help improve care delivery, staff satisfaction, and patient experience,” said Larry Ball, Business Unit Manager of Rauland. “Winning MedTech Breakthrough’s ‘Best Clinical Administration Hardware Device’ two years running is a significant milestone in our pursuit to deliver critical and advanced communications, workflow and life-safety solutions for healthcare providers around the world.”
The MedTech Breakthrough Awards program celebrates excellence and innovation in the health and medical technology industry, recognizing the companies, products, and solutions driving meaningful progress and improving patient care. Spanning a wide range of categories—including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices, Medical Data & Privacy, and beyond—the awards highlight the groundbreaking work that is transforming the healthcare landscape.
This year’s program saw a record-breaking number of nominations from leading companies and startups across more than 18 countries, showcasing the global impact and momentum of the digital healthcare industry today.
“Rauland Responder encourages faster response times, improved safety outcomes, and better overall care. Given current nursing and staff shortages, hospitals are challenged to maintain critical communications and efficient workflow when staff are not in sync or in control. The result is workload stress, uninformed decision-making and poor patient outcomes,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “Direct staff-to-staff and patient-to-staff communication improves staff efficiency and the patient experience. Rauland’s Responder exhibits transformative capabilities that pave the way for a future where technology tightly integrates with compassionate patient care, empowering healthcare professionals to make informed decisions promptly and efficiently.”
