Wellness Centers — Healthy, Grab-and-Go Markets for Patients, Visitors & Care Teams

What Is a Healthcare Smart Market?

(H3)
A healthcare smart market—also known as an unattended retail kiosk, micro market, or grab-and-go solution—combines an AI-secured cooler with open shelves inside a clinic, hospital lobby, or rehabilitation center. Users tap a card or mobile wallet, select items, and finish checkout in under 30 seconds. Operators handle inventory, food-safety compliance, and restocking, letting medical staff stay focused on care.

Pain Points We Solve in Clinical Settings

• After-hours hunger & hydration: Cafeterias often close by 7 PM, yet night-shift nurses and patient families need fuel at 2 AM.

• Infection-control concerns: Staff leaving the floor for food increases hallway traffic; an on-site kiosk keeps movement contained.

• Limited healthy options: Vending machines heavy on candy bars contradict wellness messaging and dietary guidelines.

Key Enhancements for Administrators & Facilities Teams

• Dietitian-approved product mix—low-sugar beverages, protein-rich snacks, gluten-free and allergen-labeled items—all tracked for expiry and temperature.

• AI theft-prevention keeps shrinkage below 3 % even in public lobbies; payment is fully cashless for cleaner touchpoints.

• Automated restock alerts ensure popular SKUs remain available without burdening environmental-services staff.

• Plug-and-play install uses a standard 120 V outlet; no plumbing, venting, or concession staffing needed.

Results Facilities Typically See

• Higher patient-family satisfaction scores thanks to 24/7 access to comfort items.

• Reduced staff off-floor time—clinicians stay closer to patients, improving response readiness.

• Optional revenue share that can offset utility costs or fund employee-wellness programs.
