René, a father and careiver, found a way to improve his son's quality of life by improving his support aid- Mobilize me.

About the solution

When faced with daily activities, people with some degree of cognitive dysfunctions, such as autism, ADHD, dementia or acquired brain injury rely on a system of very structured and very visual planing of every activity that happen throughout their day. This allows the patient to preserve time and energy, which in result frees them to focus on the things that matter to them, and which they enjoy doing. By giving this type of structure, the patient actively removes the uncertainty in revolving the activities of the day, enabling the user to develop other skills that they most enjoy.

When René Brøndberg-Bras saw his son, who has autism, carrying multiple visual planners around every day, he saw an opportunity to improve his quality of life, which motivated him to develop Mobilize me. This app acts as the supporting aid which was before only physical and visual representation of the activities performed each day, and transforms it in a more accessible and simple way of life structuring, readily available for everyone at the touch of a screen.

Mobilize me is a support tool, that works on smartphones and tablets, and helps the user to visualize his/hers activities during the day using pictures, color codes and time markers, which allows them to not carry every physical copy of their schedule, but have instead everything concentrated in one place, and available at any time. Thus allowing for a better understanding of the day’s activities, more motivation to work, patients are less stressed and patients show less improper autistic behavior as they seem calmer and spread less unrest to everyone around them.
