Health Care Mobile Apps
Patients and providers both turn to mobile apps for increased access to information.
Quick Facts on Health Care Mobile Apps:
The mobile app “Medscape” has been downloaded over 500,000 times from the iTunes app store and features a large drug reference section that includes herbal drugs.
“Calculate” by QxMD is a medical calculator that lets health care providers search for calculators based on specialty.
When considering use of a health care app, be sure to look for controlled clinical research that supports the app. Many developers haven’t done enough homework or linked up with a medical school faculty that can test their product, but some have.
The study “Global Mobile Health Market Report 2010-2015” by research2guidance suggests that by 2015 over 500 million users will download a health care related mobile app.
Stay in Touch When Disaster Strikes
Register or Search the Safe and Well Listings
Disasters often make it difficult to stay in touch with loved ones. The American Red Cross Safe and Well website is a central location for people in disaster areas in the United States to register their current status, and for their loved ones to access that information. It helps provide displaced families with relief and comfort during a stressful time.
The Safe and Well website is easy to use:
- If you are currently being affected by a disaster somewhere in the U.S., click List Myself as Safe and Well, enter your pre-disaster address and phone number, and select any of the standard message options.
- If you are concerned about a loved one in the U.S., click Search Registrants and enter the person’s name and pre-disaster phone number OR address. If they have registered, you will be able to view the messages they have posted.
Safe and Well is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and is accessible in both English and Spanish.
