Send us Fan MailWhat if a simple app could save precious minutes in an emergency and even prevent medication errors?In this episode, I chat with Declan Watters, a paramedic from Donegal, about the AI-powered medical tool he developed, Medisnap. Designed for pre-hospital and emergency care, the app uses OCR and AI to quickly identify medications, flag critical interactions, and provide inferred medical histories, helping paramedics, nurses, and doctors save time and make better-informed decisions.  We dive into how the app was created, how it’s being used internationally, and the journey toward regulatory approval, all while bootstrapped and built as a side project. A fascinating story of AI for good, innovation, and practical impact in healthcare. Learn more and connect with Declan: https://medisnap.ie/https://www.linkedin.com/in/declanwatters/Want to go deeper on AI? 📖 Buy AI Playbook📩 Get my weekly LinkedIn newsletter, Human in the Loop. 🎓 Level up with the CPD Accredited AI Playbook Diploma 📞 Let's talk about AI training for your team: digitaltraining.ie or publicsectormarketingpros.com if you are in government or publics sector.
