Brainey App; Recovery after a BrainInjurybyNiamh MaloneBackground to the Brainey App:I worked as a Clinical Nurse Specialist instrokerehabilitationfor over ten years. In July 2013, I sufferedasub-arachnoidhaemorrhage (an acquired brain injury which is aformof a stroke)It changed my life forever. When I got home IrealisedI had lotsof ideas in my head, but I couldn’t write themdown. Ieventuallywas able to write down one word – ‘recovery’ anditstarted fromthere.I developed a motivational psychological programme formyself,andstuck to it. This helped me overcome the challenges, andadaptandadjust to the changes in my life. I designed this app tohelppeoplein a similar situation to myself, and to help them seethatthesechanges are normal. The feedback so far is that peopleseethe app asa ‘buddy’ for them, aiding them with theirrecovery.This app willfirstly help people to overcome challenges,and thenhelp themre-integrate into their community.Purpose of the app:It is a psychological motivational recoveryapplication.Itprovides guidance, support and advice, through texton ascreenthat updates every month. The app is designed forpeoplewithacquired brain injuries (e.g. sub arachnoidhaemorrhages,traumaticbrain injuries, brain haemorrhages, strokes,and electivebrainsurgery). There is a repetitive structure andformatthroughout,with sequencing, repetition, and prompts. Thereare nographics,colours, or patterns, which all distract the brain(whichis whythis presentation is in black and white).Re-integrating back into community life:There is very little support for people with anacquiredbraininjury, it can take up to 6 months for accesstomulti-disciplinaryservices. It can be very traumatic cominghome.Realising thatalthough everything looks the same, everythingisdifferent whichis unsettling. People often find themselvesfeelingdepressed anddemotivated. It can be a very lonely time, eventhoughfamily andfriends try to help. It’s often hard to explainexactlywhat iswrong, so it can be difficult for other peopletounderstandexactly how to help.How Brainey App helps:Brainy App deals with psychological motivation. Ithelpspeoplesee that the feelings of tiredness, unusual thinking andnotbeingable do simple activities are perfectly normal withanacquiredbrain injury. It reinforces the belief that it’s finetoprogressat their own pace. It can help the personregainindependence andtake control of their lives againOverall layout of the app:User DetailsHelp ScreensHome ScreenPop up Screens with additional informationInformation for CarerInformation for ChildrenUseful Web LinksDaily ReminderMonthly FeedbackUser DetailsAbout the App
