• enhances the patients' healthcare experience
• increases adherence to treatment
and has been designed to tackle your biggest every-day problems with patient education.

Simplicity and Structure

To every patient a consult is a very stressful situation in which his/her capability to absorb information is very limited. That's why our materials excel in presenting each clinical situation as simply as possible, with plenty of high-quality yet simple-to-understand illustrations that adequately support your explanation but leave out any unnecessary complications.

Time

The constant time-pressure you experience in today's health care, with seemingly never-ending lines of patients and overfilled waiting rooms, doesn't mean you need to skip patient education altogether. The clever structure of our materials, with illustrations, icons and short support texts, coupled with the app's extreme ease-of-use makes that you can give your patients the explanations they deserve within a minute or two.

Modesty

We believe that the patient should concentrate to what you have to say, rather than being daunted and distracted by the spectacular technological wizardry of the iPad. Our apps behave as modest as possible, so that you can use the app in the way it is meant: as a welcome tool to support your story and get your message across in as short as possible time.
