Next-Gen Hospital Navigation System
Agel, a forward-thinking healthcare organisation, recognised the need to improve internal navigation within their hospitals. Recognising the challenge, they partnered with Noove to develop a solution that would improve the overall navigation experience for both patients and staff.
The challenge
3 weeksNoove and Agel worked together to define the challenge at hand: improving hospital navigation. The challenge was presented to participants in a 24-hour hackathon format, inviting teams to brainstorm, ideate and propose innovative solutions to address navigation issues in the hospital environment.
Winning solution
24 hoursOf the participating teams, one emerged victorious by exceeding expectations. This winning team not only designed a solution, but went a step further by creating mockups for a dedicated app. Their solution included a visual navigation system using colours and pictograms to appeal to all age groups, ensuring accessibility and ease of use.
Client response
90 minutesAgel was very impressed with the outcome of the hackathon. The winning solution, which included a well-designed app interface and visual navigation elements, aligned with Agel’s vision for a more efficient and user-friendly hospital navigation system. The success of the challenge demonstrated the power of collaborative problem solving and innovation in a compressed timeframe.
Implementation
Encouraged by the success of the hackathon, Agel is actively implementing the winning solution in one of its hospitals. The implementation phase is a critical step in turning innovative ideas into tangible improvements to the hospital’s navigation infrastructure. It exemplifies the seamless transition from ideation to real-world application.
