Florence selected for AWS Healthcare Accelerator: Global Cohort for Workforce

We're excited to announce Florence has been selected to take part in the AWS Healthcare Accelerator: Global Cohort for Workforce

During this four-week program for startups, we’ll look for practical solutions to urgent challenges facing the healthcare workforce. We’ll explore how AWS can improve training, retention and work opportunities for nurses, care assistants and support workers.

It’s a great chance to make meaningful change, and we can’t wait to get stuck in.

Hands-on learning and mentorship

Participating in the AWS Healthcare Accelerator is a golden chance to boost our innovation efforts for healthcare professionals and organisations. We'll receive hands-on AWS Cloud and technical training, mentorship from healthcare leaders and exposure to AWS customers and members of the AWS Partner Network.

We’ll also be able to showcase our platform and speak to industry experts about how to improve Florence. We can use what we learn to empower nurses, care assistants and support workers, as well as the health and social care organisations we partner with.

Using tech to tackle the staffing gap

We’re on a mission to solve the global staffing shortage and we’re excited about how participating in the AWS Healthcare Accelerator will help support Florence’s goals.

“It’s an honour to have been selected for the AWS Healthcare Accelerator”, says our founder, Dr Charles Armitage. “It marks another important milestone in the growth of the company and it’s a testament to the work we’re doing to address the global healthcare staffing crisis.”

We want to use advanced tech, like machine learning, to make the health and social care sector more sustainable.

“Tech is right at the core of our product”, says Charles. “We’re excited to take advantage of AWS services to make our product work even harder for all users.”

We're thrilled to join the AWS Healthcare Accelerator to help make Florence even better for everyone.
