Satasairaala is a 26 000m2 polyclinic complex at the Finnish west-coast. The modern hospital launched a mobile application allowing patients to easier interact with the hospital services. To make the patient experience as smooth as possible from the first visit, the hospital implemented Proximi.io high-accuracy indoor navigation solution in the hospital mobile app. The navigation takes patients right to their appointments through turn-by-turn navigation. The solution is currently deployed as a pilot in selected areas of the hospital.
