CHICAGO, IL (October 17, 2023) – Oneview Healthcare (Oneview), a leading provider of patient experience solutions, and Baxter International Inc. (Baxter), a global medtech leader, are pleased to announce the official launch of their strategic relationship in the United States. The launch was announced during a joint meeting with the Minister for Enterprise, Trade, and Employment from Enterprise Ireland, Simon Coveney T.D. at Baxter’s global headquarters in the Chicago area, on Tuesday, October 17th.
Under the agreement, Baxter selected Oneview as their patient engagement solution provider. Baxter will now offer Oneview’s Care Experience Platform (CXP) to their hospital customers across the United States. Adding Oneview’s cloud-hosted CXP will broaden the Baxter care communications and collaboration portfolio, adding patient experience, digital door signs, and digital whiteboards to its leading platform of connected solutions, helping to better connect patients, families, and care teams during inpatient visits.
The collaboration comes at a time of significant change in the healthcare industry, characterized by financial constraints, staffing challenges, and evolving consumer expectations. These trends underscore the pressing need for digital transformation and workflow optimization that can help the nursing team work more efficiently while improving patient experiences. Oneview’s CXP, designed to enable nurses to operate at the top of their license and to empower patients, will complement Baxter’s portfolio, with a particular emphasis on enhancing the connected hospital room.
During the meeting with the Minister for Enterprise, Trade, and Employment from Enterprise Ireland, representatives from both Oneview Healthcare and Baxter expressed their enthusiasm for the collaboration and outlined their shared vision for the future of healthcare. This relationship directly aligns with the mission of Enterprise Ireland, which is to support Irish businesses in achieving global success. They emphasized the importance of leveraging technology to drive positive patient outcomes, improve operational efficiency, and ultimately transform the healthcare landscape.
“We look forward to working with Oneview to bring new connected solutions to the hospital that are focused on lessening the burden on the care team and improving the patient care experience,” said Julie Brewer, president of Baxter’s Care and Connectivity Solutions division. “As a global company that has operated for more than 50 years in Ireland, we remain committed to finding opportunities for further collaboration that can accelerate our vision of a connected care ecosystem.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Baxter International in this exciting venture,” said James Fitter, CEO at Oneview Healthcare. “This collaboration will enable us to combine our expertise and resources to deliver a truly transformative patient experience. As a result of the collaboration, in the last two months we have created over 20 new jobs in our Dublin, Chicago, and St. Louis offices, strategically positioning us to leverage the growth we anticipate this partnership will deliver.”
Leo Clancy, CEO of Enterprise Ireland said “With the US Midwest and Ireland being significant medtech hubs, we are seeing signification levels of partnership between US and Irish companies as they co-collaborate on innovations to improve patients’ health and wellbeing. The partnership between Baxter International and Oneview Healthcare is a great reflection of this co-collaborative approach, not only improving healthcare, but also delivering job creation in both the USA and Ireland.”
