Voxello: Giving a Voice to Hospitalized Patients
In the U.S. alone, there are 3.9 million hospitalized patients who can’t communicate their needs to nurses. Without proper means of communication, these patients are three times more likely to experience preventable complications, such as adverse reactions to medicine.
Voxello, led by CEO Rives Bird, has created an innovative solution. Bird brings more than 20 years of experience as an executive in multiple medical device companies, and has launched multiple successful entrepreneurial ventures in Iowa.
