Voice-Care Selected As A Finalist In The ‘Best Health Tech Solution Of The Year’ Category In The Health Tech Awards 2024 For Its Surgical Workflow Application

19th September 2024

Voice-Care International Ltd is delighted to announce that it has been selected as a finalist in the ‘Best Health Tech Solution of the Year’ Category in the Health Tech Awards 2024 for its Surgical Workflow Application.

The Voice-Care Surgical Workflow Application has been developed in accordance with the WHO, LocSSIPs and NatSSIPs Checklists alongside surgical clinicians, Heads of Governance and ICUs following discussions regarding Surgical Safety Checklists. 

Through the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and a comprehensive software platform, it enables the verbal recording of any checklist before, during and after a procedure, instantly recording and uploading notes to the patient record directly from the point of care on completion of the procedure or event. By using voice commands, the solution guides teams through a specific procedure via a pre-defined set list of questions, continually capturing critical procedural patient information and data to ensure 100% compliance and standardisation; accurate, accessible record-keeping and the elimination of human factor issues to enhance and improve positive patient outcomes.

Delivering a suite of voice-enabled ground-breaking applications and solutions specifically designed to progressively transform patient safety and care, Voice-Care enables greater staff satisfaction, increased safety and ensures 100% compliance with standardised processes and procedures through the prioritisation and management of the administration of medicines and patient observations through the use of voice-directed technology.

A common feature across all Voice-Care applications is that it allows users to work hands and eyes free. It is an easy to use, low-cost and dynamic digital solution which uses two-way speech commands and a custom-built scheduling system, addressing the need to simplify the recording of patient observations directly from the bedside in real time. It also enables clinicians and caregivers to maintain eye contact with the patient, enabling more personalised engagement levels without having to refer to paper notes or documents.

Supporting integration with existing hospital systems, the solution can also be reconfigured and developed to suit the demands of any healthcare application wherever there needs to be compliant inspections or a patient/carer scenario. 

With the ability to capture photos, live stream ‘how to’ videos and record free speech at the end of the observation process, all information is accurately obtained in real time, ensuring a consistent and immediate information flow between relevant clinicians and staff without the need to manually record notes, saving valuable time and reducing carbon footprint. 

An accompanying Voice-Care secure mobile phone app ensures that family and friends with the correct security settings have real time access to patient updates and progress, reducing the pressure on front-line staff to handle inbound phone calls from concerned relatives, which ultimately takes them away from carrying out important tasks and care plans, helping to keep patient care at the heart of everything they do.

Philip Jarrett, Executive Director at Voice-Care comments, “We are absolutely delighted that our Surgical Workflow Application has been recognised yet again, this time as a finalist in the ‘Best Health Tech Solution of the Year’ Category in the Health Tech Awards 2024. This is testament to the huge amount of work and effort that has gone into making Voice-Care the solution that it is today. As a business, we are passionate about patient safety and care, and are delighted that the solution will go a long way in improving both of these elements within any hospital or clinical setting, helping nurses, doctors and clinicians effectively manage the care which they give to their patients, especially in light of the ongoing staff shortages within the NHS.”  

The Voice-Care Partner Ecosystem comprises of leading companies within their respective fields, including Zebra Technologies, Jabra, Infor, Tappable, Apex Systems, Nuance and Lydia Voice, a solution of the EPG Ehrhardt Partner Group, a global leader and expert in voice-directed solutions.

Keith Hardy, Executive Director at Voice-Care concludes, “This is yet another fantastic accolade for Voice-Care. Despite being a relatively newly formed company, Voice-Care is backed by decades of experience within the healthcare sector, and we are delighted to have been recognised in the prestigious Health Tech Awards 2024. We are very much looking forward to the virtual Awards Ceremony in October and would also like to pass on our congratulations to all the other finalists.”
