What is the problem we are trying to solve?
Ghana continues to lose lives due to inefficient bed management in hospitals. In particular, Emergency Rooms are often clogged as a result of poor patient flow within and between healthcare institutions. Apomden's goal is to ease the flow of patients in hospitals, improving patient care and overall survival rates.
Why would Apomden work?
The general public will have access to bed occupancy data in hospitals near their current location so that patients do not find themselves in the wrong hospital in the first place. Additionally, hospital staff can harness the functionality of the software to communicate between departments or even with other hospitals. Ultimately, this increases patient flow between and within hospitals, allowing for better care to be provided to all who need it.
