As a patient advocacy association you want to send a clear and powerful message to your members and supporters: you want to help your members protect their health now more than ever.
At Self Care catalysts we can help.
Managing a chronic disease is not easy at the best of times.
Managing it during COVID-19 takes the right tool.
The free Health Storylines COVID-19 app is that tool.
Using the app, patients with underlying chronic conditions can now track their health and monitor any developing symptoms and accurately report changes to frontline health professionals. The app also facilitates vital contact-tracing when users track social interactions.
Patients can use the app for daily digital self-care and monitoring of their existing conditions.
The app promotes self-care by guiding patients on how to prevent infection, what to do if they believe they are infected, and how to protect their mental health. It provides up-to-date, verified information on the status of the pandemic and responsible guidance on how to interpret the data for peace of mind.
Chronic disease patients will be helping themselves.
And helping the helpers.
By using the app and giving informed consent to donate their real-time de-identified health data, patients will be performing a positive act of social solidarity. They will become data donors, the new breed of COVID-19 heroes. The greater the number of people who download and use the app, the more people will be able to practice informed self care sooner and the more data will be available to inform interventions to flatten the curve.
COVID-19 Self Assessment tool
Speaking of urgently needed data, the app’s COVID-19 Self Assessment survey includes demographic and medical history questions to help researchers uncover predisposing factors to contracting COVID-19 and help them understand the differential impact on different ethnicities. It also facilitates vital contact-tracing when users track interactions. It’s the app the times demand.
The right app designed for patients
A number of COVID-19 related apps are now appearing. Each does something different. The Health Storylines COVID-19 App was created leveraging over a decade of experience creating disease specific apps that patients use for self care. We poured all of our learning and understanding of patient behaviour into the COVID-19 app. We invite you to learn more about what makes our apps so unique. We have also created a simple comparison chart to help you see at a glance why the Health Storylines app is uniquely suited for patients managing a chronic disease during COVID-19.
