Summary: | As Singapore’s population grows larger, more physiotherapists will be needed to meet the demands. On the contrary, it has not been an easy task to recruit more of these health professionals who help patients regain normal lives and movement after illness or injury. With such shortage of physiotherapists, it is a challenge for them to be able to supervise each of their patient’s progression.
In this ever-improving era of technology, where majority heavily rely on their smartphones, developing an Android Application is the most suitable and efficient way for physiotherapists to “Stay Connected” with their patients. With the aid of the application, patients’ cooperation with the exercise regimen will increase over physiotherapists’ surveillance.
The purpose of this application not only allows physiotherapists to send patients exercise regimen videos, but also helps patients in identifying their own mistakes made in the exercise through the Dual Video comparison function. |
