Features
-
Supporting different waiting lists
Whether a patient is waiting for physiotherapy, an outpatient appointment, or has an operation date, getUBetter offers self-management support tailored to their needs.
-
Local and organisation specific content
The perioperative support package includes general guidance as well as locally configured content specific to your organisation, the individual’s condition and wait time.
-
Improved experience and reassurance
Patients have an improved experience and understanding of their wait. This provides reassurance but importantly ongoing safety netting, so patients are advised to seek help if necessary.
-
Supporting the peri-operative pathway
getUBetter allows patients to start to physically and emotionally prepare for their operation in the days, weeks, and months before, which can have a huge impact on the surgical outcome and quality of life after the procedure. We also support people from hospital to home.
