In this inspiring interview, Marc Schiffman, MD, Co-founder of VoiceLove and Co-Executive Director WCM Fibroid Center, Weill Cornell Medicine, shares the story of why and how he co-founded #VoiceLove during the #covid19 #pandemic.
VoiceLove is a HIPAA compliant walkie-talkie with an accompanying app that allows family and friends to securely communicate with their loved ones who are hospitalized.
The mission is deeply personal to Dr. Schiffman, who lost his mother to covid. While hospitalized, she also experienced #delirium, something he says 75% of ICU patients experience.
One of the best ways to treat delirium is through #familyengagement. But, during the pandemic, especially in the early days, many patients were isolated in the ICU. It was devastating for the patients and their families.
Delirium is also tremendously costly to the healthcare system.
Check out this interview with Dr. Schiffman to learn how VoiceLove is simultaneously connecting patients and families, while also control healthcare costs.
