One of my students is using the Circle of 6 app in the course she is designing. In looking at the app, I found myself thinking that it might be a useful resource for ePatients – especially in the chemo and post-surgery. I totally see times when my husband went to work and I was alone in the apartment. If I ran into trouble I could use the app to say “hey, I need help”.

The app itself was designed to help people who are at risk for experiencing sexual assault, but I could totally see how it might apply to patients.

What do you think? Is this an app that you might find useful?
