What's special about Simple?
Simple is free, fast, easy to learn, and quick to deploy:
Record a BP in under 20 sec
Simple is fast and fits into most workflows, so healthcare workers spend more time with patients and less time doing data entry. A healthcare worker can record a visit with BP and medications in less than 20 seconds.
Easy to learn
Because it's so simple, healthcare workers can learn Simple in the field in less than 2 hours. We regularly train users on-location in hospitals to use Simple right away.
BP history is simply displayed
A patient's BP history is displayed simply, so nurses and doctors can scan it in a busy care environment. We will add graphing of BPs soon.
Follow-up with every patient
It's very important for patients to return to the facility for treatment on a regular schedule. Scheduling follow-ups is easy and the patient will receive text message reminders to return to care.
Remind overdue patients to return
If a patient misses their follow-up visit, Simple will add them to an easy-to-use overdue list. Any staff member can call the patient and Simple hides their phone number from the patient.
Offline first, high performance
The app works great in places with unreliable connectivity and where a healthcare worker may be offline for days at a time. Simple works fast offline and data is synced whenever the user’s internet is active.
Use any Android device
Simple works on either personal phones or on clinic-owned tablets. The app has a small footprint, under 20MB, and is light on data usage. Simple works on any modern Android phone or tablet, version 5 or above, so you can get started with hardware already on hand.
