MIAMI, Fla. Oct. 2, 2009 /PRNewswire/ -- Finding information to provide
essential and practical aid
and care during serious situations is
crucial and an invaluable resource, especially while on the go and when
emergency personnel may not be able to deliver a timely response, or to
administer self-care without a costly physician or emergency room visit.
The
original inspiration for the iMobile Care app was to provide
information, updates and alerts about the H1N1 or Swine Flu virus. But
after the girlfriend Helle Staal of one of the VisionSync founders
experienced an emergency due to an insect bite which required immediate
medical attention, and after another VisionSync founder rushed to
perform the Heimlich maneuver on a child who was choking in a grocery
store, the VisionSync team decided to expand the iMobile Care app to
include a user friendly guide for facilitating fast care for a
multitude of situations and conditions, including asthma, burns,
injuries, chest pains, dizziness, car accidents, food poisoning, heat
stroke, hypothermia, pains and strains, shock, among a variety of other
serious situations and conditions included in the iMobile Care app
first aid reference guide under "Conditions and Situations".
iMobile
Care is useful for anyone wishing to learn the correct procedures for
providing first aid care, and it's a great tool to have ready at the
touch of a finger when using the guide for delivering timely care, or
to signal to others in the area that you are in distress and require
immediate first aid care.
The
VisionSync team conducted field research and developed the iMobile Care
platform which is personalized, dynamic, interactive, and user-friendly.
The
personalized platform enables iMobile Care users to create their
settings for their own individual conditions and situations. So if
users have epilepsy, for example, they can input specific messages
prior to having a seizure. Or if users have certain allergies, they can
type a message in, with special instructions, for others to see on the
iPhone screen, if for example, one of the users experiences an allergic
reaction after an insect bite or jellyfish sting.
The iMobile Care App includes:
- Illustrated First Aid Guide with concise and effective instructions
- Personalized Platform for creating messages, instructions, and emergency country code numbers
- Emergency Button (911 for USA )
- SOS Distress Signal Button
- Search and Navigation Button
- Location-Aware and Mapping Component
- Image
Capturing Button for snapping and storing photos after serious
situations, such as insect bites, car accidents, and injuries.
