PROJECT PURPOSE

ThE Problem

Taking care of a loved one with a progressive neurological disorder can be stressful when it comes to following care plans, coordinating and managing specific care tasks and maintaining updated records.This care becomes even more complex and stressful if the management of these tasks, resources, and information is not centralized between numerous caregivers.

The solution

Our mobile application aims to centralize care taking through calendar centered tasks while also providing a means to store health related documents and take notes about task completion. This app will be HIPAA compliant as it deals with sensitive health care information.

The TAKEAWAY

Building this management platform to account for all the scheduling of caretaker responsibilities while also maintaining the spirit of healthcare and loved ones was an interesting task. I was personally responsible for the task management aspect of the app which took a lot of breaking down the system to understand what was necessary and how to create a caretaker app that is helpful rather than hurtful to a family's wellbeing.
