Radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies are rapidly evolving, and healthcare is expected to be one of the fastest-growing sectors. This paper describes how this emerging technology can be used to build a smart hospital after briefly introducing the RFID field's common terminology and current standards. RFID can assist optimize business operations in healthcare and enhance patient safety when used in conjunction with mobile devices in eHealth applications. The second part of this article explains how to use the RFIDLocator, an asset tracking application, to improve the quality of hospital services. The RFIDLocator was created to meet the high demands for scalability and dependability that such an application demands. Its distributed software architecture is described in detail. The necessary procedures for its setup to the concrete case of the hospital are presented in a brief cookbook. This paper concludes with some critical remarks about RFID technology, the important questions it raises, and the barriers it must overcome in order to be fully integrated in eHealth applications.
