Problem
Hospitals face challenges in maintaining high hand hygiene compliance, leading to healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and increased costs. Communication gaps between patients and nurses can result in patient dissatisfaction and increased nurse workload. Hospital administrators need real-time data to improve patient care and operational efficiency.
Solution
Patient Voice offers a technology platform designed to improve patient-nurse communication, streamline workflows, and enhance hand hygiene compliance, ultimately reducing HAIs. The platform provides patients with an iPad-based interface for direct communication with their care team, access to health information, and entertainment. For nurses, it automates reminders, streamlines communication, and provides real-time updates. Administrators gain access to real-time data, detailed reports, and effective contact tracing to improve transparency and tracking of patient care activities. The system leverages vocal biomarker technology and AI to predict and prevent HAIs, monitor hand hygiene events, and provide compliance alerts.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes hospital administrators seeking to reduce HAIs and improve patient satisfaction, nurses aiming to streamline workflows and enhance patient care, and patients desiring better communication and access to information.
