Amigo
Everyday assistant for people
dealing with mental crisis
A machine learning based messaging app that monitors the recovery process of people dealing with a mental crisis.
About 160,000 people are treated for mental health in Israel.
Many are asked to fill out a daily report on their condition and progress, but in practice they do not.
The Problem
Weekly meeting
With a therapist or support group
As part of the treatment process, the patients must perform various tasks and report on their daily performance
Patients have difficulty keeping up with the tasks and reporting to the therapist, so there is no monitoring of their condition
Continuum of care is interrupted and decreases the ability to intervene and assist in real time before the situation deteriorates
How can we increase patient collaboration with the rehabilitation program,
Encourage them to complete their tasks
And report it to the therapist?
The Solution
Each day, the patient receives questions that encourage action and empowering messages that are personally tailored to his / her coping - anxiety, loss, depression and more.
The system monitors its performance reports and responds immediately and personally.
All reports are stored in the database and allow caregivers to examine the pace of the patient's progress
*The system uses the Telegram messaging app and therefore it does not require embedding and changing user experience habits
