In June 2011 Pear Health LLC launches an entirely new advancement in patient care. The "Patient Pod" Bedside Safety/Amenity System embodies the insights of front-line nurses passionate about taking the best possible care of their patients, plus the needs of patients, families and hospital administrators. The patent-pending Patient Pod system distills these solutions into a simple, holistic, affordable tool that reduces inadvertent medical harm and its attendant costs, and increases patient satisfaction. Most important, this system offers patients a level of dignity, autonomy and control during their most powerless and vulnerable times.

Pear Health LLC was founded by Pat Mastors, a patient advocate and former medical reporter, following the loss of her father to complications of a hospital-acquired infection.

Following Pear Health’s June 2011 launch, look for the debut of array of new products and initiatives as Pear Health creates and deploys simple solutions to some of the most vexing challenges of delivering quality medical care, all developed through the eyes of the patient. Patient Pod trials in the nation’s hospitals prove that, as the Institute for Healthcare Improvement 2011 White Paper concludes, “Excellent partnerships with patients contribute to safer care, and safer care results in better patient experiences.”
                                     
Pear Health alliance partners include GOJO®, makers of PURELL® hand sanitizer, and Atlanta-based Healthcare Team Training, our medical team training partner.
