App Concept
LiftShift Triage
LiftShift Triage automatically assigns patient lifting and mobility tasks to the appropriate staff (nursing vs. PT) based on task complexity and patient status, via integration with existing EHR/scheduling systems. This eliminates role confusion, reduces physical therapist burnout, and ensures billable PT time is used for skilled interventions.
Key Features
- Task triage algorithm based on patient mobility level/transfer complexity
- Integration with EHR for automatic task generation and assignment
- Real-time dashboard for charge nurses to reassign tasks across roles
- Reporting on PT billable vs non-billable time and staff utilization
Target Users: Acute care hospitals and rehab facilities with both nursing and physical therapy staff
Revenue Model: SaaS per facility bed or per user tier
