Are you using digital health tools to keep control over your health, rather than falling behind it?

❓What tools are you using, and what are you missing?

Working your way through today’s healthcare system doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With the right digital tools, you can take charge of your health—track your progress, communicate confidently with your care team, and feel more in control between visits.

◾There are many tools available right now to help you manage your health and wellness. Some include patient portals, symptom trackers, medication reminders, and virtual visits. These tools can help you stay ahead of your health—leading from the front. 💪🏽

I am looking ahead to our community starting in soon. We will explore more of the digital options available for use. This is just one of the many topics we will be covering as we progress along in health and wellness. 

A few familiar tools you may be aware of include

• Wearables like the Fitbit, Apple Watch, and Omron BP Monitors are examples.
• Symptom trackers such as Bearable, Cara Care, and Painscale are some examples .
• Apps for health management, such as MySugr for diabetes, Blood Pressure Monitor for blood pressure, and Yuka for nutrition are examples.
• Some insurance & cost tools, such as GoodRx, Zocdoc, and MDSave can also be quite helpful.
• Lastly, examples of chronic disease apps are the Brite Trace app for dementia & Alzheimer’s patients, and SCD Warrior for sickle cell disease.

You may have had some experience or insights with some of these tools. These helpful tools should not replace the advice from your medical provider. They are available to assist you in your health and wellness. I have not personally used all of these apps. I do check reviews and love feedback from folks.

◾Using these creative tools and apps helps us gather personal information about our health status. They can also support us in making informed decisions regarding our wellness and health. Let’s journey toward a better, healthier future marked with positivity and proactive care together.

Let’s explore what might be the missing link in your healthcare routine. 💡 What would you like to add to the list that helps you feel empowered in your healthcare?
