Visit to Oysta Technology
On Friday, I had an interesting visit to Oysta Technology (producers of Pearl Care devices) situated in the popular Pury Hill Business Park. I was given an impressive presentation by the founder Mario Zuccaro, CEO Emma Marlow, clinical lead, Deb Knowles and other members of the Oysta team.
Founded in 2008, Oysta is a care tech provider with an ambition to change the way vulnerable people are cared for. They specialise in digital care solutions that help people live safer independent lives.
Oysta technology has already been adopted by a number of local authorities and their results have shown they save numerous bed spaces in hospitals – getting dementia sufferers home quickly if they have wandered off, getting speedy help to vulnerable people who have fallen over, thereby avoiding hospitalisation, and providing call outs that mean less use of blue light services.
I enjoyed meeting “Pearl” and having my photograph taken with her!
