Children’s Journey is a communication application that facilitates informed and
shared decision-making
between
patients, families, and surgical teams.
The initial focus will be improving experience and outcomes for children undergoing surgery, but the app
will be
expanded to several other areas of children’s healthcare. The app will accompany the families from the
moment
they are referred to a surgeon, during appointments, while waiting for their surgery or appointments and
–
especially – during the entire period after the surgery or clinic visits. The medical or surgical
encounter will
be identified as a journey with various modules for each stage – whether pre-operatively and
post-operatively,
or inpatient and post-discharge. The app is first developed in English and French, with Arabic, Mandarin
and
Spanish to be added in version 2.
It is important to encourage and empower our young patients
to have
the knowledge to advocate for their care and be better prepared. As such, a unique “children’s companion
app”
will be created in version 2, accompanying the children through their own age-based journey at the same
time
with their caregivers.
Version 2 is also planned to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) to
continuously monitor and track communication patterns and preferences, making it progressively more
responsive
to each patient’s needs. Eventually, the goal is for the app to result in true personalized
communication
between the families and the healthcare team.
