UKAPO solves the problem of persons with disease who can not speak to explain their medical issues. UKAPO offers a multitude of specific medical symbols especially for physicians and pharmacists but as well for helpers and volunteers to communicate systematically the acute matter. This leads simultaneously to the right treatment of the disease. UKAPO was developed based on pharmacies' wishes and realised in cooperation with them. The first two pages of UKAPO allow a consultation according to the consultation guidelines of the Deutsche Apothekerkammer. The other seven pages include health status, body parts, medication and other medical products and services. Symbols: METACOM © Annette Kitzinger
