RAPID HEALTHCARE NOMINATED FOR ORANGE COUNTY BUSINESS JOURNAL’S "INNOVATOR OF THE YEAR" AWARD 2015
Irvine, CA – Rapid Healthcare Inc. has been nominated for the Orange County Business
Journal’s inaugural Innovator of the Year Awards 2015. The awards ceremony was created to honor and
recognize some of the Orange County’s most influential leaders and entrepreneurs. The winners will be
revealed at the event on September 24th 2015 at the Hotel Irvine.
Rapid Healthcare’s clinical mobile solutions help reduce costs associated with patient treatments, eliminate clinical errors and provide patient safety. Rapid has successfully deployed its first patent-pending product, Mother’s Milk, an innovative mobile solution developed with caring nurses and babies in mind. Its verification system protects both patients and nursing staff by eliminating feeding errors from occurring inside the NICU.
This application is currently in use at the NICU for Pomona Valley Medical Center (PVMC), where it helps to prevent miss-feeds from occurring. Last year alone, PVMC did over 40,000 scans and prevented more than 250 possible miss-feeds from occurring which resulted in significant cost savings and potential liabilities prevented for the medical center.
Anton Ansalmar, President and CEO of Rapid Healthcare noted, “It has been an amazing journey for us. Just a few years ago we were building apps and providing services for some customers across different industries. At that point in time, we made the decision to make the investment to develop our own software products and platform that would help support healthcare in the 21st century. Mother’s Milk is just one part of our innovative healthcare industry solutions which is having a tremendous impact at our first customer. Our goal is to continue to provide innovation in healthcare and launch other proprietary apps on our platform in the coming months for use in hospitals across the country.”
