CareStarter Technology

CareStarter is the first app for the families of children with chronic illnesses. The new app for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices is also available via web browser from any connected computer. It's the only application that gives patients and their families' access to information and resources that can help them manage every facet of life after the diagnosis of a chronic medical condition. By delivering information tailored to each patient's diagnosis, and offering care givers at least 10 options for every kind of necessary resource -- from medical care through nutrition, respite care, education and a host of other support services -- the CareStarter app removes the fear, desperation, and doubt that make it harder than it has to be to find the resources that special needs children require. CareStarter sorts, filters, and delivers information on all of the resources needed by patients and families living with a chronic illness. Unlike other healthcare information services that focus on a single disease, or on referrals to a physician for an acute illness, CareStarter delivers recommendations that are appropriate for each stage of the patient's life.
