Following the development of its bedside solution for hospitals,
Extenway Solutions inc. ("Extenway") (TSX VENTURE: EY) is pleased
to announce that it has signed a first agreement with the Jewish
Rehabilitation Hospital ("JRH") to provide its bedside interactive
patient media solution to a minimum of 118 beds. Extenway will
deliver to JRH an in-room experience that transforms standard
television into a multimedia experience. The Extenway System
permits patients to feel more at home by providing on-demand access
to entertainment: including digital TV, video-on-demand, music,
radio, internet access and video games as well as educational
content to help patients to learn more about their condition, their
caregiver team and their healthcare facility.
"We are thrilled to be working with the JRH to change and
improve the health experience for patients" said John McAllister,
CEO of Extenway.
"By providing for the Extenway System, our patients will remain
better connected to the outside world, thereby enriching their stay
within de Hospital. In addition, the Extenway system will help them
maintain their familial, social, and sometimes vocational links to
their home and work lives during their stay, thereby facilitating
their return back home" said Albert Yehuda, Director of
Administrative Services of the JRH. "Patients will also be able to
keep in touch with family and friends through integrated
video-conferencing and phone service from their beds."
Under the agreement, which has a ten year term, the System will
remain, at all times, the exclusive property of Extenway. The
execution of the agreement is subject to Extenway's financing of
the System under terms acceptable to it. Negotiations for such
financing are currently proceeding.
