There has to be an easier way.
I was fresh out of the DPT program at the University of Southern California, and barely two weeks in to my first post-grad job at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania when the thought first struck me. Outcome Measures.
I had learned about them in school, and used them during my clinicals, but always felt something was off. I knew they were important to track my patients’ progress, to see if my treatments were effective, and to help prevent insurance denials. However, the time and energy it was taking me to look into each outcome measure was frustrating. I couldn’t easily find the right resources and information, and definitely didn’t want to take time off of the hospital floor to calculate these scores over and over.
I couldn’t be the only one that felt this way, right?
This practice of pen and paper calculation and scanning through online research to documenting findings in my notes felt so… dated.
I quickly saw a void, took action, and Mobile Measures was born.
The industry needed an all-encompassing app to assist with the sometimes-daily monotony that was outcome measures. The thing was, they didn’t have to be so monotonous!
I never wavered from my promise that this would be the easiest, most clear-cut app I could possibly design.
It would be a mobile application so quick and user-friendly, any practicing PT could fit it in to their day with ease. No more wasted time and energy. No more uncertainty of which test to use. No more endless searching for up-to-date information. Instead, better, more accurate documentation, information at my fingertips, and above all, better patient care.
Fast, user-friendly, reliable. What could be easier than that?
