Description
We would like to invite industry to enable us to provide care closer to home. Innovative solutions are sought to enhance one (or more) of the themes: - Improving capabilities in the pre-hospital setting that can enable patients to be cared for closer to home. This could include Point of Care Testing (e.g. blood tests with rapid results), wearable technology solutions and mobile scanning equipment; and - Use of technology to support patient care, enhance communication and improve patient safety during initial diagnosis or in cases of prolonged community waits for an ambulance or 111 response, or awaiting an urgent appointment at a place definitive care”.
Total Quantity or Scope
We are looking for solutions that will provide a positive outcome, high-impact for the population of Wales. In particular, demand for ambulance/Urgent and Emergency Care services is high for: - People that have fallen - patients that have been on the floor for a significant amount of time (long lies); - People experiencing respiratory problems – especially acute exacerbations of chronic conditions; - People experiencing chest pain – where the nature of the pain cannot currently be confirmed in the pre-hospital setting. There are many diagnostic solutions on the market. This challenge aims to bring solutions together to develop an ambulance sector solution for use in the pre-hospital environment.
