About

RadCare

RadCare was founded to guide patients with prostate cancer through EBRT. RadCare’s mission is to help patients lower anxiety and make the difficult journey easier with accurate and helpful information.

What was the challenge_

When patients undergo treatment for prostate cancer, the lack or too much confusing information on what to expect doubles their anxiety.

RadCare realized that providing patients with timely and relevant resources during the treatment course could improve their well-being.

How did we solve the challenge_

A mobile application with valuable resources updated depending on the stage of the treatment would help patients stay informed and keep them connected. Patients could track every week of the treatment and gain instant access to relevant information — for example, diet, exercises, or anxiety-management techniques.

Users define the basic parameters of their treatment to receive weekly health-related resources.

Custom Guide

The RadCare app outlines all the treatment steps, detailing how patients should prepare for each. Patients can also connect with other patients for additional support.

Important Resources

The admins keep the app relevant by managing the contents from a WordPress-based CMS.

What was the scope of the project_

When RadCare came to us, the company had only an idea for the application. Our team helped design the user interface as well as polish all the functionalities so that the app would fit the use case.

What was the business outcome_

An accessible and convenient treatment progress tracking mobile application, with a rich library of resources. The library can be easily updated from a Wordpress-based desktop CMS by the doctor.

The application outlines all the steps in the treatment and how patients should prepare for each step. Patients can also connect with other patients for additional support.
