Research shows that there is a clear connection between mobility and people’s physical and mental well-being. Our strategy is based on major challenges faced by healthcare: offering more people high-quality care with fewer resources – and this is where mobility is a key factor.
Improved mobility raises the quality of care, prevents complications, shortens the length of care, and minimizes the number of work-related injuries among caregivers. We show the way to positive effects through increased mobility, and work together with our customers to create better conditions for high-quality care.
As a Mobility Outcome Partner for healthcare, we offer solutions were we together with our customers assess the unique needs of each care setting, and develop a tailored program that, in addition to the right equipment, also secures skills and working methods for personnel. Working closely with the customer toward joint goals, we assume responsibility for creating a change in care practice, thus achieving improved clinical and financial outcomes. With this holistic approach we address a market that is ten times larger than the market in which we currently operate.
Outcome-based programs for healthcare
Healthcare is facing a growing need for patient care and rising costs. Our customers need support in solving a number of challenges in a new way so that they can optimize their operations with respect to patients, caregivers and resources. For this reason, a core element of Arjo’s strategy for 2021–2030 is to become a Mobility Outcome Partner and expand our focus on outcome-based programs.
What does it mean to be a Mobility Outcome Partner?
- Together with our customer, we perform an assessment of the unique needs of each care setting based on data regarding problem areas related to reduced mobility, such as work-related injuries among staff, and pressure injuries, venous leg ulcers and falls among patients.
- Arjo develops a tailored program that, in addition to the right equipment, also secures skills and working methods for personnel.
- Working closely with the customer toward joint goals, we assume responsibility for creating a change in care practice, thus achieving improved clinical and financial outcomes.
- Based on this holistic approach toward solving some of healthcare’s major challenges, we are addressing a market that is ten times larger than the market in which we currently operate.
People & Organization
A changed business model with a greater focus on outcome-based selling will place new demands on the organization,and competence mapping and development will therefore be important areas moving forward.
