The challenge: more patients, fewer staff – increasing strain

The healthcare sector is under immense pressure: rising patient numbers, staff shortages and increasing cost pressures are forcing hospitals to work more efficiently – without compromising on the quality of care. At the same time, patient transport is one of the most physically demanding tasks in everyday hospital life. Pushing hospital beds requires considerable force, leads to awkward postures and places strain on the back, muscles and joints – especially on inclines, when manoeuvring or during sudden movements.

The result: 

  • High physical and mental strain 
  • Increasing sickness absence 
  • Inefficient use of scarce staff resources

The solution: intelligent mobility that supports like a second person

WeAssist™ is an innovative mobility solution that fundamentally changes patient transport. Using an intelligent algorithm, the system recognises the caregiver’s movement impulses and provides automatic support for almost every driving manoeuvre. The principle is simple – similar to an e-bike: the person sets the direction. The system provides the power.

The result:

  • Safe transport by just one person
  • Noticeably reduced physical effort
  • Intuitive use without training

The system gives you the feeling that you’re not driving alone. It effectively replaces the second person.

The decisive difference: scientifically proven, not just claimed

What makes WeAssist special is not only the technology – but the scientific evidence of its effect. 

 An independent study by FH Münster University of Applied Sciences examined real-life application scenarios with and without WeAssist. Among other things, hand forces, muscle activity, spinal load and posture were measured. 

 The results are clear: 

  • up to 67% less muscle activity in the muscle groups examined
  • up to 36% reduced spinal compression forces at L5/S1 level 
  • up to 36% less trunk inclination when pushing 
  • up to 45% reduced hand action forces

... for caregiver: noticeable relief

For caregivers, WeAssist primarily means one thing: genuine relief in everyday work. Significantly less physical strain Ergonomic working that protects the back Less stress during demanding transport tasks More focus on the patient instead of manoeuvring The system acts like invisible support – as if a second person were always there.

... for the hospital: measurable efficiency

What means relief for caregivers is a clear economic lever for hospitals. By enabling beds to be moved by just one person: Staff resources can be used more efficiently Workflows can be accelerated Productivity in daily operations increases Model calculations show: Potential savings in the millions per year, depending on the size and structure of the hospital. WeAssist turns an everyday process into a measurable efficiency gain.

... nursing management: fewer absences, greater satisfaction

Reducing physical strain has a direct impact on staff health: Fewer back and muscle complaints Reduced sickness-related absences Lower sickness rates Greater employee satisfaction and motivation Especially in an environment with rising absence rates, WeAssist becomes a strategic tool for staff retention and relief.
