Our vision

The nurse staffing crisis isn't just about headcount. It's about broken workflows, contant interruptions, and system that make it harder for nurses to focus on patient care. High turnover rates, burnout, and unsustainable workloads are symptos of a deeper structural issues that demand real, practical solutions.

PatientCompanion is built to address those root causes. We layer on top of your existing nurse call system, transforming it from a generic signal into a smarter, more responsive communication tool. By organizing and triaging requests at the bedside, we reduce low-value interruptions and help nurses manage their workload more effectively. This means safer care environments, improved patient experiences, and more time for nurses to do what they do best.

From supporting staffing ratios to improving patient flow and satisfaction, PatientCompanion is a scalable, tech-enabled way forwar to solve the day-to-day challenges that drive burnout and disrupt care.
