As the crisis in the emergency department continues, a former emergency physician has developed an application to locate care facilities near home and know the waiting time.

Emergencies are in crisis and strikes continue. To try to unclog the services, a former emergency doctor, psychiatrist, has set up an application: "MyAppli". Its goal is to give, thanks to geolocation, possible alternatives near you, according to your health concerns.

The goal is also to host without an appointment, says the creator of the application, Dr. Abdelkader Louiz: "For a person who has a toothache, one evening at 20h, just take the application and He will be able to see the structures that can accommodate him without an appointment. "

"I immediately see what is the closest point to my home," says a user. "It's without appointment and we see the waiting time," she continues.

Data provided by centers and users

And to help patients even more effectively, the app will give the average wait time per facility. This information will be provided by the users but also the health centers themselves. Data that can prevent potential patients from going to the emergency room without justification. But the creators of the application insist: for vital emergencies, you have to press the pink button on the screen that refers to number 15.
