MpowerThe New Patient Lifeline Designed and Developed by Sushama Bhat B Caroline Castellino Allyn Rippin
The Problem ED treatment rooms can be an isolating, stressful and dehumanizing experience for patients. A lack of information and loss of control can lead to anxiety, boredom and a sense of helplessness. The traditional bedside remote control offers patients limited function, flexibility and connectivity. Our SolutionIntroducing Mpower, an innovative, universal “lifeline” designed to connect, engage and empower the “stranded” patient through information and positive engagement. With its colorful, wafer-thin design and user-friendly touchscreen, patients can access information about their progress, learn more about their caregivers and customize their rooms with relaxing video views of nature.
