Problem

Critical Delays in Emergency Care

Every week, patients die in ambulances because they cannot access care in a hospital in a timely manner. Often, hospitals sit on their capacity and keep patients waiting in life-threatening situations because they don't know which hospital has space. These delays are costly, in terms of the patient's life and care resources. The bigger crime, however, is that delays come not because of a lack of medical information, or the lack of knowledge on how to treat a patient. They come because information is not available in real-time when it is most urgent.

The primary issues are as follows:

1. Seemingly never-ending delays in emergency case admissions

2. Uncertainty regarding the availability of beds

3. Hospital bed capacity information is not actively had or shared

4. Hospital finding delays because hospitals have certain specialties (e.g. maternity, pediatrics)

5. Families remain lost, and waiting, without timely and necessary information

Watching a family member get worse inside an ambulance is hard, especially when they could die on route, not because the care they need isn't available, but because we've lost sight of how to get it.
