Project: Navenio technology against COVID-19

Summary: Navenio are making their infrastructure-free indoor location and workforce AI solution available to hospitals which can help to address the very thing that Covid-19 is creating – much increased pressure on healthcare systems with reducing or constantly changing types of available staff to help. The Navenio solution has already proven in a number of NHS hospitals that it can double the throughput of existing hospital teams such as porters and cleaners, simply by making far better use of their time as they become increasingly stretched. This in turn has been shown to free up spare capacity (up to 30%) and create a truly reportable service level – increasing patient safety in the process. Knowing team’s precise locations in hospitals helps to ensure the right person is helping in the right location every time. This can relieve the increasing pressure on patient flow, whilst also ensuring each individual is helped to do their roles safely, which is so important at this critical time. It also avoids clinical time being taken up by portering and cleaning tasks, which often happens to keep things moving. Specific solutions that Navenio can help with that are particularly relevant to Covid-19 are: Infection Control Rapid Response Cleaning, Porter Tasking, Staff Support, Location Only. The location technology is already live in a number of NHS hospitals where it is in full time 24x7 use, as is the Navenio Tasking solution.
