The hospital emergency room is one of the most stressful places for both patients and medical staff. Despite the fact that telehealth has already saved time, we've only just scratched the surface on how far it can go. With constant development in medical technology, we can better care for our residents.
At TECNISHE, we understand that emergency departments are under constant pressure to give every patient the care they need. We've developed a unique solution that helps alleviate that stress and provide care where patients are comfortable most—at home. With this innovative service model, we can help reduce emergency department visits and improve clinical outcomes.
We connect providers and hospitals around the globe using video chat, live video feed and document sharing platforms. This means faster access to professionals who can help deal with issues so patients don't have to sit in a waiting room for hours on end.
TECNISHE was started by two people with the same mission.

They did research for long emergency room waiting times. Developed a business plan for a possible solution. TECNISHE was born.
