WHO WE ARE
QiiQ is a team of healthcare and technology experts, working to improve hospital operations. We all recognize that technology can help deliver the systemic transformation that everyone knows is needed. As a team, we know that tech panaceas won’t manifest without careful consideration of user experiences.
And,
We are obsessed with emergency department operations. The ER is the entry point into the healthcare journey for a large majority of those eventually find themselves in a hospital. That initial experience is often a determinant in how a person relates to the healthcare industry for a lifetime. That’s enough to justify our passion.
Yet,
We also recognize the weight of the patient encounter to the job satisfaction of millions of providers around the world. This helps produce an even more precious calling for the QiiQ team: we have a solemn commitment to the people who assess and treat the masses – they deserve the extra care that comes in the form of beautifully-designed technology.
Of course, this is not our calling alone. We anticipate collaborations with many other tech teams with a common vision: to help heal the healers.
