Ward-round handover notes (sample) Build
Spoken handover in, a structured note the next shift can trust out.
Sample brief
This is an example while our first real briefs are being written. The shape is right; the specifics are illustrative.
The problem
Handover between shifts is spoken, then written down twice — once on paper and once into the hospital system, hours later. What gets lost is the detail nobody thought was important at 7am, and the cost lands on the patient.
Why now
Speech models are finally good enough on accented clinical speech, and a note that never leaves the hospital's own network is now a deployment choice rather than a research project.
The wedge
One ward, one shift change, one template. Dictate the handover, produce the structured note, let the outgoing nurse correct it in under a minute.
First customers
Teaching-hospital wards that already run a written handover ritual.
What people do today
Paper, a WhatsApp group, and remembering.
What working looks like
Two wards using it for a fortnight without being asked to, and the outgoing shift correcting fewer than one line in five.
Why Kampus wants this built
The hard part is not the model, it is being trusted inside a ward. A student team with a clinician on it can earn that faster than a company can buy it.
What we do not know
Who signs off on the note, and does the structured version become the record or stay an aid? We do not know.
Who you might need
One student who can ship a small web app, one who has sat through a hospital shift change, and one who enjoys evaluation harnesses.
On market size
Indicative only: every tertiary hospital runs dozens of shift changes a day, and none of them are currently anybody's software.
