No unnecessary stress or anxiety during care situations
At Qwiek, we believe that care—no matter how challenging or medically necessary—should never come at the expense of a person’s dignity. However, in the hustle and bustle of the day, we often see that medical procedures such as inserting an IV, treating a wound, or daily bathing can completely escalate. Not because of unwillingness or a lack of effort, but because of fear and panic.
When calm words no longer get through, a situation of helplessness arises. Based on our conviction that we can prevent such escalations together, we develop effective tools that immediately restore calm.
Our tools immediately calm the nervous system and the well-known “fight-or-flight” response. Stress responses subside immediately, even before the medical procedure or ADL care begins.
Inspired by the procedural comfort care method (via the PROSA Knowledge Center). By positively focusing attention through sight, sound, and touch, the brain simply has less capacity to process pain and anxiety stimuli. The stressors are completely pushed into the background.
Prevent loss of consciousness and struggles at the bedside. By de-escalating the situation in a timely manner, you can prevent trauma, reduce the likelihood of needing physical restraint, often minimize the need for medication, and allow the team to complete the procedure calmly and efficiently.

Meet the dream team
As you can see above: we don’t build our tools from an ivory tower, but together with the people on the front lines. And that calls for a specific kind of team. We’re a group of designers, tech experts, and consultants with a healthy dose of stubbornness and a deep passion for what we do.
While persistent problems in healthcare can sometimes feel overwhelming, we find it fascinating to explore how things can actually work. We ask the questions that might be a little uncomfortable, design solutions that are just a little different so they actually work on the front lines, and travel far and wide to gather the best insights and support you.
And because we’re quite proud of the people who make this happen every day, we’d love to introduce our team to you below.
