Why Health?

Health systems across the world are under increasing pressure. The demands are rising, but resources often can’t keep pace. One way to help relieve the pressure is for people to engage more in their own health. Taking greater control, ownership and responsibility for keeping well.
Known as health self-management.
By keeping track, monitoring ourselves and managing our health, we build a rich archive of data. For the first time, this can give clinicians insight into how we’ve been doing between appointments, and new ways to engage more meaningfully. This process of helping clinicians take care of us is part of what’s known as shared decision making.
Today’s online technology has radically changed many other industries. This same technology can be harnessed to aid health self-management and shared decision making. This is best done through safe, secure, simple to use services that are personal and private. We believe digital technology will make a significant impact in the future of healthcare.

Our Story

uMotif is a socially-minded software company helping people to lead healthy, engaged and independent lives through simple technology.
We aim to be part of the bright new future of digitally enabled healthcare. We work with patients, clinicians, patient groups, charities and academia across the world to design, develop and deliver software that’s proven to work.

We believe it is essential to focus on on the needs of both patient and clinicians; putting people at the centre of our research, design and development process.
Our team comprises of clinicians, designers, computer software experts and business professionals. We pride ourselves on our socially-minded approach, placing the need for evidence at the heart of everything we do.

We channel a proportion of our profits into academia and patient groups, and invest in other projects and services that make an impact in healthcare. For example, our free blood pressure testing service - Popup Clinic

Patient Groups

The uMotif software platform is designed for use by a range of patients. We work with clinicians in primary and secondary care to tailor our platform to each patient group, delivering precisely for people and their clinicians.

Collecting evidence is a part of everything we do. We believe in the importance of proving how our tools improve care and support delivery. We’re working with a range of partners across patient groups in clinical, private and academic settings.

Parkinson’s Disease

Our first small-scale trial showed 70% daily use rates and an increase in medication adherence. A multi-centre trial in NHS hospitals across the UK starts in early 2014.
Diabetes

We’re working across 4 NHS hospitals in the UK to support people with Type 1 and 2 diabetes and their clinicians. Through integration with Microsoft HealthVault, we’re connecting to a range of devices, and care planning applications.
Post-Operative Care

Working with Barts and the Royal London Hospital orthopedics department, we’re helping people track, monitor and manage their recovery following surgery, providing surgeons with more data to help clinical care.
