Kontakt.io, a healthcare RTLS and digital transformation company, has released two mobile applications designed to enhance hospital operations.
Mobile apps can help reduce staff response time to alerts and streamline equipment searches for patient care.
The Kio Staff Safe Alerts app allows security personnel to receive instant alerts and locate staff in real-time. The Kio Nurse app also helps caregivers quickly locate medical assets.
The Kio Staff Safe Alerts app also provides instant notifications via wearable Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) staff badges.
This feature enables rapid response to incidents by displaying staff location, movement, and identity, facilitating rapid deployment of assistance to defuse potentially dangerous situations.
The Kio Nurse app is a tool for caregivers and biomedical teams that provides a live map view to efficiently locate equipment.
By reducing time spent searching for equipment, staff can spend more time caring for patients.
Additionally, the app helps drive cost savings by increasing equipment utilization, reducing the need to purchase or rent additional devices.

It’s important for the care team, not only in finding the right equipment at the right place and time, but also in relieving staff of obsessive behavior.”More peace of mind for patients Supported to provide care.
“With these new mobile applications, Kontakt.io is helping health systems solve their most persistent challenges related to asset management, staff safety, and compliance efforts.”
In addition, the Kio Nurse app incorporates a gamified system that employs BLE and infrared (IR) sensors to carefully monitor handwashing practices and rewards staff for compliance, thereby encouraging better hygiene habits. We encourage
Both mobile applications are complemented by web-based versions that provide detailed reporting and AI analysis.
These are integrated with Kontakt.io’s AI-powered platform, which leverages GenAI to transform operational and clinical data into actionable insights throughout a patient’s hospital stay.
This integration is intended to help health systems optimize resource allocation, ultimately reducing waste and increasing capacity.
Earlier this year, Kontakt.io secured $47.5 million in a Series C funding round to grow and scale its AI solution.
