According to TechSci
Research, the
newly launched LIO mental health operating platform represents a significant
advancement for the healthcare industry, particularly in the specialized field
of inpatient mental health care. By integrating ambient monitoring, digital
observations, and operational insights into a single, unified solution, LIO
