PatientCompanion

About us

PatientCompanion is a Canadian healthcare technology company focused on improving the experience of both healthcare workers and patients through smart, streamlined communication. Designed to enhance clinical workflows and elevate care, the platform allows patients to easily communicate their needs using intuitive icons, voice-to-text, or translation features.

Unlike traditional nurse call systems that offer limited context or prioritization, PatientCompanion categorizes and prioritizes requests in real time. This helps nurses fulfill multiple requests in a single trip, reduces alert fatigue, and ensures that urgent needs are addressed promptly while non-urgent tasks are routed to appropriate support staff.
