Description

A start-up located in northern Germany solves a well-known issue, described as follows: “No network in the hospital, hours of waiting for feedback after an important operation, untraceable direct dialling to the infirmary and in the end you reach someone who is not allowed to give any information.” Ineffective communication between patients, relatives, nurses and doctors has many consequences. Isolated patients are lonely. Relatives are worried and cannot get any information for days or talk to their loved ones. And for carers it is very difficult to change this. The developed communication platform seeks to solve these problems and brings some relief to all actors involved. The client will answer all technical and data protection related questions in advance and the company prepares an individualised solution for each hospital or related health organisation. It is assured that no additional workload is transferred to the customer’s technical department. 

Partner Sought

• The client is looking for partners in various fields.
• Research partners for scientific studies on the effects of digital communication on patients in intensive care, such as universities or research institutes.
• Businesses such as IT service providers or other relevant companies as well.
• Hospitals as cooperation partners
