The application eases, bundles and organizes real time communication between medical teams making other forms of in-hospital communication such as fixed phones, pagers, faxes and emails obsolete over time. The application is integrated seamlessly with existingclinical systems enabling integrated care pathways. Additionally, it allows physicians and nurses to access and share medical information for decision-making and facilitates communication at the point-of-care. The team is working closely with healthcare providers to build and advance rich feature sets tailored to modern healthcare professionals and care workflows.
