YoTeCuido is an innovative tool that promises to help address Alzheimer's disease through a collaborative platform between patients, family members and doctors. Thanks to digital penetration and elimination of time and space barriers, this type of digital solution can be used to connect several people and improve the quality of health services.
The Association of Relatives of People with Alzheimer's of A Coruña (AFACO) in collaboration with the Spanish startup, Lapisoft, created an application that seeks help and facilitate the life and conditions of people suffering from Alzheimer's disease, as well as those responsible for caring for them.
I TAKE CARE OF YOU is a tool that will help the way in which patients face the disease. It will also allow family members and specialized caregivers to obtain more information on dealing with the condition.
Through this app the user may ask any type of question to a group of specialists from all over the world, who will answer in real time without any setbacks. The intention is to create a collection of questions and answers that will be renewed and updated periodically.
The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), describes Alzheimer's as the progressive deterioration of neurons that are responsible for the operation related to the recognition of time and space.
According to recent WHO data, this disease affects about 50 million people worldwide, mainly older adults.
Through this software, the user will find very useful content, such as simple answers to problems that usually arise daily within this condition. The system will also allow access to a category that provides information on the symptoms and care of each phase, the steps to follow after diagnosis, adapted physical routines and other important measures.
Among the benefits offered by this app, one of the most valuable is the information provided by other users who are related to the condition and who share where to go for support, how to avoid the caregiver syndrome, tips and routine exercises to care for yourself.
