communication within hospitals
Today, most hospitals still use the emergency red call button for all patient calls, whether they are in terrible pain or simply in need of a blanket. When a patient presses the nurse call button, hospital staff is unable to prioritize the patient's needs because there is insufficient information regarding their needs & condition. Due to potential large number of calls and the inability to route calls to different staff members, the patient requests may left unaddressed.
THE PROBLEM STATEMENT
Hospital patients struggle to communicate with medical staff and to order food
Why does this happen?
Manpower shortage
No one dedicated to the food ordering role.
Language gaps between patients and staff
In Israel, most of the public speaks Hebrew and English, but there are many minority populations who speak other languages, including Arabic, Amharic, Russian, French and more.
Hospital overload
What happens to patients?
They feel neglected & uninformed
They don't get a response
The food is not adapted to them

Lead to quick discovery and save time
02
Increase user usability

I am an Arabic speaker. I gave birth 5 times in this hospital. With the Hospikol system this is my first time here that I feel understood.

In the past when I stayed in this department, I had to call multiple times for a nurse , but nobody came. Now, with Hospikol, my dedicated nurse comes quickly with the relevant medical supplies.
