For Health

Fall of 2015 - Spring of 2016

Tools: JavaScript, CSS, HTML

The For Health (Fin. Terveydeksi) app is a demo designed to serve as a diary about personal health for a child with a long-term illness. The application gathers information about the illness and the health status of users. The collected information can then be shown to a doctor or be otherwise examined afterwards. The basic idea of the demo could be applied to similar situations, where the goal is to gather information over a longer period of time.

In the resulting demo, an adult, such as the guardian of the child, assigns questions to the app, that the child themselves then answers to. For example, one might ask: “Have you been feverish?” or “How tired do you feel?” The child answers these questions in the app daily and is rewarded for it. They get a puzzle piece, which motivates the child to gather information about their health the next day as well. This also gives the child a routine for daily health monitoring.

Continuous monitoring can be used to spot patterns in the user’s responses and to see significant fluctuations in their health status. Although the app is intended for monitoring the health of the chronically ill, the user can keep a diary of what they want.
