Problem Identification
Healthcare systems and services have done a lot for the senior level community in the field of day to day operations, however, there are still many people who do not have access to most of the healthcare services either because of lack of plans or unstructured services. Therefore, we aim to build a single point of care app that would be advantageous to the senior community and help them avail health facilities in a convenient way.
- Eliminate conventional time-consuming paperwork method
- Reduce documentation errors and boost service revenue
- Reinforced mobile technology to work online as well as offline
- One tap service track feature
Feasibility Study
With the mounting demand for healthcare services in the senior living personnel, it is important to connect them with caregivers and allow real-time tracking updates. We implemented the idea of building an application where the staff can confirm the resident's service on demand and that also with a single tap making everything easier and faster.
- Capture meal attendance
- Effective management of work orders
- Routing requests to the right caregivers
- Track services provided to residents
- One-touch paperless medical charting database
Solution Implementation
User research
User research is a crucial factor to implement as it helps in minimizing the risk factor involved in developing a solution. By carrying out user research, we can get real-time insights into what our target audience expects from the application we are planned to launch in the market.
Product discovery workshop
The success of a project depends upon how it has been understood by both clients as well as the development company. Therefore, to thoroughly understand the mobile point of care app, we held a meeting with our client and sailed through various stages to set the right foundation for the solution. This product discovery workshop session helped us to mutually explore the scope to turn the idea into a fruitful business.
Based on all the discussions we had, our team contemplated design, features and gained insight into what demands of senior living personnel will the app eventually fulfill. This session also aided us to establish the core values of the product and we further gained an understanding of the prototype to follow in order to meet deliverables. In the end, we finally compiled all the project requirements and readied ourselves to begin with the development.
Competitor Analysis
Competitive Analysis is one of the important components to consider and explore in order to sketch the marketing strategy of the solution you are about to develop. We carried out market analysis to make ourselves aware of the strengths and weaknesses of potential competitors who are offering similar services like ours.
