Information and motivational tools for people living with HIV
Provides a more personal patient experience
The brief
Healthcare professionals at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, supported by the hospital’s health charity CW+, wanted an app to help people with living with a variety of health conditions to access reliable information and support tools in a convenient format. A need was identified for a flexible app framework which could be adapted to suit patients living with a range of conditions such HIV, diabetes, cancer or bariatric issues so as to support optimum health and well-being.
​
The solution
BeYou+ was designed in a creative and co-investment partnership with CW+ for initial roll out to people living with HIV. It includes specific body, mind and life information; tools for goal setting with a weekly progress scale; daily notifications and video rewards, information sections, appointments pages which sync with the device’s calendar, tracks graphically CD4 and viral load; and creates personalised lists of medications and healthcare professionals.

The results
A password protected app with content provided by the HIV clinical team at Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust to provide a better patient experience.

"People living with HIV are now able to use this app to focus on being healthy, living well and achieving their goals. To have specific, reliable, up-to-date information provided in a convenient and accessible way means users can access what they need, when they want it, which is great. I am passionate about my work and the people I work with on a daily basis so I am really excited that my idea has been transformed into BeYou+."
