The Bridge Mobile App for burn patients is the first and only app designed to provide essential follow-up care to burn patients after their discharge from the nation’s burn centers. The Bridge App is designed specifically to serve the large number of burn patients who live too far from the burn centers to receive specialized follow-up care from them. The Bridge App will improve these patients’ follow-up care, improve their outcomes, and reduce the high costs of hospital readmissions.
My Role:
This was a project worked on at the University of Tennessee. Along with another designer, we designed a user interface for recovering burn patients to assist them with in-home wound care and rehabilitation exercises. The application also collects information about the patients pain, mood, and anxiety levels; provides the patient with progress reports, support group and emergency contact information.
