In an unexpectedly turbulent and challenging context...

such as the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen immediate reactions that have accelerated technological processes that were previously seen as solutions from a distant future.

In health, specifically, the paradigm shifted when the need for diagnosis faced the dilemma of physical contact. That's when the solution appeared: teleconsultation. By telephone or video, both the SNS and the large private groups rushed to make remote diagnosis possible.

But it soon became apparent, and we continue to see it, that both sectors have structural, organisational and market relations difficulties.

Although the first steps have been taken

We need to learn to walk, and to do this we need to innovate, with new requirements, different solutions and other formats of care, prioritising proximity, follow-up, relationships with patients and an affordable cost.

It's in this context that Knower Care Centre was born, a project I've been very proud to be part of since day one. We arrived with the premise of leveraging digitalisation in healthcare units and providing patients with a 360º healthcare service. With our service, the video consultation is no longer an isolated act, but the starting point for complementary diagnostic interventions and uninterrupted and unproblematic healthcare.

This is a project designed to be innovative, inclusive and efficient. We are a health platform, based on video consultations, in a universe of health and well-being services at a distance or in person, developed by specialised teams and partnerships focused on a humane and efficient service.

As part of a group of specialised Human Resources solutions (Talenter), and integrating an experienced nucleus of technological and telecommunications partners, Knower Care Center has the ambition to be a reference in the health and well-being of all Portuguese people.
