Mobile Printer Technology is Helping Healthcare Organizations

Mobile Testing and Vaccination Centers

The need to establish mass COVID-19 testing sites brought many challenges to public health, including the defined vaccine deployment plans in a very short timeframe. Setting up sites for both testing and the rapid deployment of mobile vaccines is now a top public health priority in the near term and beyond. The immediate demand for ‘mobile’ public health solutions for COVID-19 testing and vaccine distribution requires quick decisions involving technology, processes, and workflows to get mobile sites up and running. While mobile technologies are not new, unique circumstances, including fragmented decision-making authority has increased the challenges. In addition, as decisions get made and sites materialize, considerations such as patient and clinician safety, the accuracy of testing, tracking patient information, proof of cold chain documents, and integration with core healthcare or public health systems are critical.

Mobile printing and labeling play a key role in this rapid deployment process.

Quick Deployable Vaccination Receipts

To set up its COVID-19 vaccine rollout, Brother recently worked with an agency in Canada to provide a receipt printing solution for vaccine recipients. The agency is deploying hundreds of vaccinations across the Province and must issue a receipt indicating which dosage and the date the vaccine was received.

Features that made Brother Mobile Printers the popular choice: 

Mobility

Since many receipt printers on the market require an outlet to run, they are not effective in mobile situations. To overcome this challenge, the agency chose Brother’s Rugged Jet mobile printers, which features industry-leading battery life, making them excellent for mobile situations. Workers shouldn’t have to share printers or walk back and forth to desktop printers. They can wear or carry printers using shoulder straps or belt clips allowing them the ability to easily move between stations.

Ruggedized for Outdoor Use

Brother mobile printers are engineered for the rigors of all types of mobile operations –with service and support that keeps them ‘round the clock ready.’ This ensures vaccine receipt printing is quick and accurate. Brother mobile printers are built ruggedly constructed to seamlessly operate 12-14 hours a day, so they last longer and require fewer replacements.

Easy Integration & Deployment

Easy to connect and simple to use, Brother wireless mobile printers ditch the messy inks and toners—delivering fast, reliable printing through advanced features. Brother mobile printers allow for quick deployment with easy integration into a majority of healthcare or lab testing hardware and software. Printers are compatible with iOS® and Android™ devices and connect via Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi® compatible.

Label Quality

Genuine Brother labels, tags, and wristbands, in various materials, widths, and adhesives, can meet any need. The easy-to-use drop-in rolls are ultra-convenient and offer customization options with pre-printed company logos or other designs. Also, built with thermal print technology, Brother labels resist smearing or fading.
