Digital Health Innovation
Healthcare systems across Aotearoa face unprecedented challenges.
With an ageing healthcare workforce, geographic barriers to access, and increasing inequities in health outcomes - particularly for Māori and Pacific communities - the need for digital transformation has never been more urgent.
As explored in our article on How might we live up to our Digital Nations Commitment, we're turning these challenges into opportunities through human-centred digital innovation.
Our approach
"Digitise services, not patients"— this philosophy guides our development of digital health solutions that enhance rather than replace human connection.
From an online National Antimicrobial Guideline platform, to youth mental health applications, we apply Human Centred Design Principles to Healthcare to deliver solutions that work in real-world clinical settings.
Our track record speaks for itself:
- The COVID Health Hub protected millions of New Zealanders and served 60,000 weekly visitors in 10 languages
- Ignite revolutionised workplace wellbeing, achieving a 60% engagement rate compared to traditional EAP's 3-5%
- Starship Children's Hospital transformed the emergency department experience for over 34,000 children annually.
As highlighted in our whitepaper Unlocking Value for Mental Health & Wellbeing with Human Centred Design, we build systems that work for both our healthcare professionals and the people they care for.
