Zebra Technologies Corporation, a global leader in digitising and automating workflows to deliver intelligent operations, and Aiva Health, a pioneer in voice-powered clinical software, announced a partnership to support hands-free nurse workflows using Aiva's AI-powered Aiva Nurse Assistant on Zebra healthcare devices, including the HC20/HC50 mobile computers and Zebra's new WS101-H wearable badge.
Through this collaboration, healthcare organisations can equip nurses with a voice-first assistant that works seamlessly with Zebra's purpose-built devices, enabling clinicians to complete routine tasks, retrieve information, and communicate – all without breaking focus on patient care. This is a real-world example of Zebra's visionary framework, Orchestrated Care, which is designed to help healthcare organisations provide intelligent visibility, empower teams and optimise operations.
This approach is powered by Zebra's extensive portfolio of healthcare technology, including mobile computers, scanners, printers, touchscreen displays, RFID, real-time location solutions and software, supported by a robust ecosystem of implementation and technology partners like Aiva.
Voice-Enabled Support, Designed for the Frontline
Aiva Nurse Assistant is an ambient, voice-powered AI assistant built specifically for hospital environments. Nurses have charted millions of rows with Aiva, drastically reducing documentation time, improving patient experience scores and cutting incidental overtime costs. It allows nurses to use natural voice commands to perform common tasks such as:
Flowsheet Documentation, directly to Epic and Cerner/Oracle Health®
Work Order Submission via ServiceNow
Access to Clinical Policies & Procedures
Voice-initiation of Clinical Interpretation Sessions: LanguageLine and AMN Healthcare
When paired with Zebra's HC20/HC50 mobile computers, nurses can use Aiva alongside familiar mobile workflows. With Zebra's new WS101-H badge, Aiva enables truly hands-free interactions, allowing nurses to speak naturally without reaching for a device, even while wearing gloves or performing clinical procedures.
