A phone at the bedside, when your patient needs it

    Amical isn't a routine hospital tool. But hospital teams keep reaching out. Here are the cases where it makes sense.

    When an Amical phone at the bedside changes things

    • Temporary hospitalization of a resident

      Your patient lives with Alzheimer's and uses Amical at her residence. A fall, an infection, a procedure. She ends up with you for a week. An Amical phone at the bedside gives her back the familiar anchor she just lost. Nursing staff is solicited less often for repetitive questions.

    • Active geriatrics and rehabilitation units

      Long stays in geriatrics, stroke rehabilitation, TBI rehabilitation. Amical structures the patient's day, engages them during anxiety peaks, and flags concerning conversations to staff.

    • Coming soon

      Continuity from residence

      If your patient already uses Amical at home or in residence, their configuration follows: language, life story, cognitive profile. No adaptation period, no new technology to learn in an already destabilizing moment.

    Different from a residence

    The stay is short. The companion adapts

    In a residence, Amical accompanies over time, months or years. In a hospital, the stay lasts days. The companion adjusts: less personal narrative, more temporal anchoring ("you're at the hospital, you're going home soon"), more presence at night, which is often the hardest.

    The deployment is different too. The phone plugs into a standard outlet, connects to the hospital's Wi-Fi or to a cellular access point we provide. No integration with hospital systems required. The phone can leave with the patient if you wish.
