«next» / Smart TV Application

«next» is a platform for patient self-education. It uses the preinstalled TV in the patient’s room, connects it with the electronic medical-records and offers patients the opportunity of getting information irrespective of time of day or medical staff, not only about their disease and medication, but also about the often non-transparent procedures and processes in the hospital itself. In the end, this encourages patients to adhere to doctors’ orders, empowers them to take active part in their own healing-process and builds the foundation for achieving health together.
