The vision and goal of Axel Health have long been to streamline and enhance the operations and planning of healthcare services. This goal took a significant leap forward in the summer of 2024 when we acquired the shares of Finnish company Unitary Healthcare Oy. But what does this mean in practice for healthcare professionals – both in Finland and Sweden?
Axel Health and Unitary Healthcare share the same core objective: making healthcare more efficient. Both companies have developed innovative solutions to address healthcare challenges. Unitary's Uoma system has already proven to be an effective tool for organizing patient transfers and facilitating communication between units, and now it becomes part of Axel's product portfolio.
Axel Health’s Encounter system streamlines patient flow management, and Unitary’s technology complements it perfectly. This means that doctors, nurses, therapists, and other healthcare professionals can now adopt faster, more reliable, and easier-to-manage processes that reduce the risk of errors.
Axel Health operates in both Finland and Sweden, so this acquisition opens opportunities to expand Unitary’s solutions into new markets. Swedish healthcare professionals can benefit from Unitary's Uoma system, which speeds up patient transfers and enhances patient safety. By integrating Uoma into our offerings, we enable both Finnish and Swedish users to enjoy a system designed to meet their specific needs.
Integrating Unitary’s technology into Axel Health’s offerings provides clients of both companies with a stronger and more versatile system. This marks a significant step toward a smoother and safer patient journey – a goal whose importance every healthcare professional can surely agree upon.
As with all development, collaboration and listening to users' experiences will be key to success. The coming year will show how best to shape this new entity to serve all users, whether doctors, nurses, IT department heads, or decision-makers in wellbeing services counties.
Together, we are stronger – and this merger brings us entirely new opportunities to create more sustainable and patient-centered solutions.
