We provide hospital-compatible tablets to enable safe, immediate patient–family communication, offering tech support and emotional connection, especially critical during crises.
? About the Company
WellTab is a Brooklyn‑based nonprofit dedicated to bridging the emotional gap caused by hospital isolation—especially during the COVID‑19 crisis—by providing bedside communication tablets to patients and their families.
? What They Do
Through “The Tablet Project,” WellTab implements plug‑and‑play tablets featuring auto‑connect audiovisual streaming, MiFi backup, and hospital‑friendly controls. It’s run by a network of volunteers and supported with on‑call tech assistance and ambulance‑stationed devices for immediate use upon patient admission.
? Mission / Vision
WellTab strives to ensure that no patient experiences loneliness during treatment. By April 2020, it had delivered over 3,400 tablets, engaged nearly 80 volunteers and multiple full‑time developers, and supported nearly 15,000 meaningful patient-family connections—completely free for users.
