Add Health Media AB (AHM) joins Nurse & Doc AB together with the doctor and entrepreneur Rickard Lagerqvist. The new company will revolutionize healthcare staffing in the Nordic region.
The healthcare staffing industry has a turnover of almost SEK 10 billion a year in Sweden. Healthcare has high efficiency requirements and major cost challenges, while doctors and nurses leave employment and rent out, in order to manage their working hours according to their own needs. Innovations to be able to change how care is staffed are up to date.
– Today’s staffing for healthcare is both costly and inefficient, says general practitioner Rickard Lagerqvist, founder of Nurse & Doc and former founder of the successful e-health company Werlabs. Nurse & Doc’s solution will reduce the costs of care, but at the same time increase the salaries of nurses and doctors, Rickard continues.
Nurse & Doc’s business idea is that clients and healthcare staff can be matched together free of charge in the company’s app. The healthcare staff who do not have their own company can get the opportunity for self-employment via Nurse & Doc for a fee of 5.75%. In the app, there is the opportunity for references by both the care staff and the client.
During the spring, AHM has made several successful investments in, among other things, e-health and health media, most recently Doctrin and Nordisk Väntrums TV, and continues to invest in promising companies in healthcare and health.
– Nurse & Doc fits well into our portfolio and creates synergy effects between our associated companies. We will be able to make a difference for the care and the care staff, which in the end will benefit the patients, says Brodde Wetter, CEO of AHM.
