The Healthcare Crisis

Administrative Overload

Medical staff spend 4+ hours daily on manual record-taking and paperwork, reducing time available for patient care during critical situations.

📄

Paper-Based Systems

Hospitals rely on paper forms that can be lost, damaged, or become illegible. No standardized digital system exists for patient data management.

🔄

Data Isolation

Patient information cannot be easily shared between hospitals or with international medical experts, limiting care coordination and specialist consultations.

📱

Limited Digital Tools

Healthcare workers lack offline-capable tools that work with limited internet connectivity and basic hardware available in crisis zones.
