Humanize the Hospitalization
Experience
Informed by 70+ families, clinicians, and leaders.
The hospitalization experience is broken.
-
Patients feel like a number
-
Family members feel lost and isolated
-
Nurses are burnt out
We believe there’s a better way.
A world where…
-
Patients feel seen
-
Family members feel engaged
-
Nurses feel supported
What We’re Doing
We are setting out on a 12-month process to research, design, and build an application that will be used in a year-long clinical trial by family members and nurses at the Nebraska Medical Center.
Our Goal
Empower and engage family caregivers in patient care in order to reduce social isolation, enhance quality and safety, increase satisfaction, and lower overall healthcare costs.
Our Why
We believe in the power of human connection. We believe family is defined by the patient and family members are valuable contributors to patient care. Modernizing healthcare means moving families from the periphery to the center of the healthcare team. We believe that the threads of love, support, and togetherness can knit the fabric of healing.
