CoWin Play – Recornect BV

Nominee Information

There is an increasing global focus on more humane healthcare, where the autonomy and individual needs of patients are paramount. CoWin Play is an innovative de-escalation solution that meets this demand and has been developed for bedrooms and comfort rooms in medium-security facilities within mental healthcare settings. The touchscreens are seamlessly integrated into new or existing furniture and comply with the highest safety standards.

Users have the autonomy to manage crises in their own way. Patients have access to apps via a user-friendly interface to listen to music, view relaxing images, and play games. An external video input option is available to connect the screen to a game console or keyboard. The system is highly suitable for educational and training purposes.

For staff, a manager application is available to fully personalize the user’s environment with photos, preferred music, a calendar, and a translation app. If desired, employees can take control by limiting the number of available apps. Moreover, it is possible to communicate safely and responsibly via CoWin Play, even when the healthcare worker and patient are not in the same room.

CoWin Play has been proven effective for both patients and healthcare personnel. It results in rapid, safe, and humane de-escalation in crisis situations and successful prevention and crisis management.
