Premio Forum Sanità: Two Italian Healthcare Excellence Nominate TapMyLife Projects

Two of the world’s top hospitals, according to Newsweek’s annual World’s Best Hospitals ranking—the IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna and ASST Papa Giovanni XXIII—have chosen to submit their TapMyLife technology projects for consideration for the prestigious Forum Sanità Award, recognizing their innovative content and operational effectiveness. Both projects represent significant advancements in the adoption of technology to enhance the healthcare sector. TapMyLife’s nomination for the Forum Sanità Award is a proud acknowledgment of our contribution to innovation in Italian healthcare.

WORLD PATIENT SAFETY DAY 2023

Ensuring the well-being and health of patients is a primary responsibility for healthcare providers, families, and the patients themselves. In this context, technological innovation is playing an increasingly central role, and a prime example is TapMyLife’s “CareGiver” app, designed to enhance safety and prevention through real-time information transmission to loved ones.

Easy Hospital: Simplifying Visits to the Policlinico di Sant’Orsola in Bologna

Easy Hospital: The New App Streamlining Access to Healthcare Services at Policlinico Sant’Orsola

Easy Hospital is the latest app developed by Engineering, a leader in digital process solutions for businesses and public administrations, designed to streamline access to healthcare services within the Policlinico Sant’Orsola complex in Bologna.

Created in collaboration with the Policlinico, the Emilia-Romagna Region, and the technology partner Tap My Life, the solution integrates digital services (such as CUP, queue elimination, and payments) to create seamless, hybrid experiences that bridge the digital and physical environments (such as kiosks, waiting areas, and clinics) where services are provided.

Tunnels, Subways, Galleries, Mines: With TapMyLife, “Underground” Localization Is No Longer a Problem

How to Ensure Safety, Localization, and Traceability in Critical Underground Areas
How can we ensure safety, localization, and traceability in critical underground areas where external signals can’t reach? This scenario is more common than one might think. An example? The safety of operators (or visitors) and machinery in tunnels, underground sites, construction sites, mines, and subways.

In essence, in all these potentially extremely “critical” locations, precise real-time tracking of machinery, operators (or even visitors) can significantly impact the effectiveness and safety of the entire workflow.

In these cases, the presence of a TapMyLife real-time localization system for machinery and operators becomes an integral part of the prevention, monitoring, and assistance system, improving plant efficiency and, most importantly, preventing adverse events.

EMERGENCY “BOARDING” IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS: THE ANSWER LIES IN IMPROVING STRETCHER EFFICIENCY

With the TapMyLife ED Stretcher Management solution, emergency department operators have access to a tool that provides real-time information on the location of stretchers (and wheelchairs), including valuable details on where they are and, most importantly, whether they are truly occupied at that moment. On the other hand, the control room has access to the actual usage index of each asset, allowing it to determine, based on real, historical, and certified data, the actual needs for aids in the individual emergency department, with the certainty that the entire fleet of stretchers will be visible on a map and utilized to 100%.

Healthcare Transport Management? With TapMyLife, automatic time tracking and monitoring from the ambulance to the department

Born from the success of the computerized patient transport request management module within hospital facilities, the transport management system has been enhanced with an integrated solution that extends its use from the moment the patient is taken in charge by ambulance healthcare operators. It was particularly important for TapMyLife to “close the loop” of automation in monitoring and managing the transport system by also integrating extra-hospital transport, as this is where the delicate process of patient handover begins, with direct implications for the efficiency of the healthcare transport process.

Navigation, Services, and Accessibility with ‘My Campus’: The TapMyLife Solution for Universities

TapMyLife’s indoor and outdoor navigation technology effectively and dynamically integrates traditional signage in universities, offering multi-language support for foreign users and paying special attention to accessibility for individuals with disabilities. MyCampus also serves as an active tool for recognizing users within classrooms to certify their presence: this information can be fully automated based on the academic schedule and made available to third-party IT solutions. In case of emergencies, the panic button allows for the activation of a geolocated alarm for prompt intervention.

Patient Transport and Efficiency in Healthcare Logistics

In the complex healthcare world, a frequently underestimated but increasingly critical element in hospital operations is the management of patient transport missions.

The computerized management of patient transport requests within hospitals (with potential extension to tracking extra-hospital transports), developed and successfully implemented by #TapMyLife in various facilities, schedules and manages transport requests among on-duty operators. This is achieved through a dedicated platform, which automatically opens and closes transport missions.

At the Giglio of Cefalù, an electronic bracelet monitors patients

An electronic bracelet equipped with a Bluetooth sensor—developed by the company TapMyLife of Bergamo—will be placed on the wrist of all patients in the surgical areas of the Giglio Foundation in Cefalù to monitor clinical pathways and timings from the ward to the operating room and back to the ward.

GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE: CURRENT TRENDS AND NEW SCENARIOS

Artificial intelligence is a discipline that generates added value for patients (and resource savings for healthcare facilities). TapMyLife offers concrete solutions for a future where AI becomes as widespread in the healthcare field as laparoscopy or minimally invasive robotic surgery, providing healthcare professionals with tools to perform their work more effectively, quickly, and safely every day.
