Norbert Health has built the first AI health hub that makes this future a reality by performing (almost all) the work of a full-time nurse, wherever patients are. Norbert Health is the first true multimodal, ambient sensing platform to train a fully multimodal, behavioral and medical AI for day-to-day healthcare.
Today, we are focused on improving the lives of elders, in Elder Care Facilities and general patients in Skilled Nursing Facilities.
