>> Hi. My name is Becky Smith.
I'm the manager in Patient Registration here
at El Camino Hospital.
And I'm here today to talk to you about a new technology.
It's called Palm Secure.
It helps enhance our registration process.
Palm secure is a biometric system
that actually reads your identity
by scanning the vein pattern in the palm of your hand.
You simply put your palm on the scanner and it scans it,
and then it matches it to your medical record number.
So why did El Camino Hospital choose this new technology?
Patient safety here is our number 1 goal,
and what this actually does - Palm Secure links the patient
to their medical record number
which reduces our medical errors.
Also helps protect our patients from identity theft.
Because Palm Secure is so quick, it's been extremely helpful
in the emergency department where every second counts.
I'm proud that El Camino Hospital is 1
of the few hospitals nationwide that's taken patient security
to the next level with Palm Secure.
