No matter where your journey takes you, we are there with you. Because caring for your health is at the heart of everything we do. Every day, around the world, we’re creating innovative solutions to improve care and expand access.
Africa has less than 2% of the world’s healthcare workers, but bears 25% of the global burden of disease. In Rwanda, we’re connecting local physicians with their counterparts in the US and Europe for real-time ultrasound training and support.
The pandemic adds to the pressure on critical-care teams by limiting resources and reducing physical contact. Our tele-ICU remote solution supports on-site clinicians with off-site monitoring, helping the sickest patients get access to critical-care specialists.
Small and remote communities can be hours from the nearest hospital and lack reliable internet connections. In partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, we’re creating ‘telehealth pods’ in rural areas to bring face-to-face medical care to patients everywhere.
Rapidly ageing communities face the twin challenges of limited facilities and restricted mobility. We see the future of healthcare reaching far beyond hospital walls. This vision is coming to life today with specially equipped vehicles that bring the hospital to the patient — as our Chief Design Officer explained to the SXSW conference 2020.
Tracking the health of mother and fetus is vital to healthy pregnancy. We’ve developed a non-invasive pod-and-patch system that minimizes physical interactions while continuously monitoring vital signs and intrauterine activity.
