The American Hospital Association (AHA) has endorsed Gozio Health's Wayfinding Solution. The solution is designed to offer turn-by-turn directions on digital signage kiosks, mobile app or tablets, according to a press release.
"The solution provides unrivaled accuracy in indoor navigation by integrating a patent-pending sensor fusion technology that combines data from a smartphone's electromagnetic, motion and orientation sensors; Gozio's proprietary robotic site mapping process; and strategic placement of its patent-pending Bluetooth beacons throughout each hospital," said Kathleen Wessel, vice president of business management for Health Forum, the strategic business enterprise of the AHA.
Hospital staff can use the platform to edit the maps or send messages. Hospitals can also use analytics to discover how visitors move throughout the facility and gather feedback.
"Our smartphone-based platform delivers hospitals a complete mobile strategy anchored by our innovative technology, which provides personalized guidance from the patient's driveway to their point of care inside the hospital," Joshua Titus, CEO of Gozio Health, said in the release. "Partnering with the AHA will help us achieve our shared goal of helping America's hospitals take patient experience to the next level."
