People are possibilities

Freeing up time for health & care workers

Similar to other welfare technology, Nyby was developed to free up the time for healthcare workers and to provide more assistance to the most vulnerable individuals. COVID-19 has foreshadowed the long anticipated healthcare crisis that Europe will be facing in the future – with increased pressure on our healthcare employees. We therefore find it highly encouraging to note a significant increase, during 2020, in the number of healthcare workers who were able to ask for help with errands, practical assistance, medical escorts, exercise and socialising, directly from qualified residents and volunteers on behalf of those who needed it, via the Nyby app on their work phones.

Inclusion and loneliness

2020 has also truly put loneliness and marginalisation on the agenda. Unlike many other welfare technologies, Nyby is not a tool for replacing people, but for connecting people. What is the value of feeling useful, and the value of being able to contribute? We are making it easier to ask for help and much easier to contribute. We view people as possibilities.
