Bringing Evelity to hospitals: A game-changer for visually impaired patients.

Arriving at the hospital is often a source of stress, especially for visually impaired patients. Wayfinding within healthcare facilities is a complex challenge that directly impacts both the quality of care and internal organization.

Today:

👉 85% of patients ask for directions

👉 30% of first-time visitors get lost

👉 15% to 20% of patients arrive late for their appointments

👉 Hospital staff spend an average of 40 hours per year giving directions

1 000 days later... the approval for regular service has been granted for "RTM Guidage"! We are happy to deliver to RTM the product ordered and co-constructed by our teams, which is a unique product in the world and of an unequalled technicality (yes, just that!).
