A healthcare platform designed to optimize prehabilitation and therapy assistance enhances workflow efficiency for patients and medical staff. By automating routine tasks, it minimizes manual processes, enabling faster and more precise execution. Patients benefit from personalized guidance, reduced preparation times, and improved overall experience. At the same time, medical staff are supported with streamlined processes, reducing administrative burdens and allowing more focus on direct patient care.
Prehabilitation, occurring before medical or surgical interventions, aims to reduce complications and improve recovery outcomes. It involves a multidisciplinary team, including physiotherapists, doctors, and psychologists, ensuring patients are well-prepared for treatment and minimizing delays. Unlike primary prevention, which prevents disease onset, prehabilitation focuses on readiness for procedures.
Currently, prehabilitation assessments often rely on lengthy, paper-based processes requiring multiple appointments. These are time-intensive and costly for both patients and healthcare providers. The proposed platform digitizes and simplifies these tasks, offering patients easy access to information and healthcare professionals. For medical staff, it reduces administrative workloads, fostering more efficient and patient-focused care. By enhancing pre-operative processes, this platform significantly improves the quality and efficiency of healthcare delivery.
