Program Components:
“We have actually seen how connecting our participants to reputable and evidence based education through digital engagement can change the trajectory of an illness.”
Care Communications: Upon enrollment, participants receive text messages that guide, nurture, and support women and families through different phases of pregnancy and early parenthood. Some messages contain links to online pages with additional educational information in the form of interactive surveys, videos and music tracks (see Care Companion). Topics include emotional support, physical health and mental wellness, child development and community resources. Care Companion: This cloud-based learning management system (LMS) provides vetted educational content that is personalized by participants’ self-expressed priorities and interests, structured into easy- to-follow sections to promote independent education, learning and self-care management. GoMo Chat: Much like a typical text conversation, GoMo (secure) Chat allows live messaging between participants and their care team, enabling in- the-moment, on demand conversations. Secure Data Collection and Reporting: Engagement and experience data is deidentified, analyzed, and reported back to the care team for ongoing experience improvement.
