61: Reimagining the community nursing journey for patients & nurses using tech with Kelly Klifa from Ally Health

On this episode, CEO and co-founder Kelly Klifa joins the show to discuss Ally Health. It’s a company that uses digital scheduling with a track and trace type system to bring clinical care to the home. No stranger to entrepreneurship, she is the founder of Testing for All, a company with an annual turnover of £29 million, which became the leading Covid-19 platform for connecting laboratories and home testing. They started with just one partner, and ended with eight labs processing between 8K and 10K tests a day.

Ally Health utilises a similar tech to ensure that community nursing workflow is optimised replacing traditional systems that meet demand with less efficiently. It also brings the ability for patients to have real-time updates about their nursing visits.

Discover:

How Kelly developed her first successful venture, Testing for All through the pandemic
How her mission to make Testing for All accessible and affordable succeeded
How they built real-time integrations across the logistical journey for transparency
How the development of Testing for All and the experience of Covid-19 led to the creation of Ally Health
How the limits of remote healthcare and the importance of nursing led them to Ally Health
How Ally Health can replace an inefficient paper-based system for mobile and community nursing
How they created a platform to aggregate nurses and create an on-demand scheduling system
How their solution can help support nurses with their workload by helping to get nurses in the right places which suit their competences
How homebound patients are now able to track their nurse visits with up-to-date visibility
How for agency nurses the platform creates a ‘gig economy’ to improve their access to work
