They have emergency situations in control

Tal Alon and Yarden Shapira, students in the Department’s Lapidim Program, developed an innovative information system for the Galilee Medical Center. The system is intended to assist the hospital administration in making educated and information-based decisions during emergencies. The two students executed the project under the supervision of Prof. Benny Kimelfeld, the academic faculty member in charge of the Lapidim Program.

The system that they developed, with an easy-to-use and friendly interface, presents the hospital management with a wide range of necessary data in real time: the number of people in a department/ward, anticipated number of patients that will be hospitalized, anticipated number of patients that will be released, and vailability of operating rooms and units of blood. The system worked successfully during an “war exercise”, held on February 7th, in cooperation with the Ministry of Health’s Crisis Handling Unit, the IDF, the Israel Police, Magen David Adom in Israel, and additional emergency services.

The pair have given us real reasons to be proud of them!
