Read full description

MEXTRA is een online cliëntendossier waarin hulpverlener, cliënt en de sociale omgeving van de client samen kunnen werken aan de zorgvraag die leeft. In de MEXTRA App wisselt u op een veilige manier informatie uit tussen alle betrokkenen in het zorgproces, dus ook direct met de cliënt. De berichten die u schrijft worden direct in het dossier opgeslagen en zijn daar eenvoudig terug te vinden. Naast algemene berichten kunt u ook direct de voortgang vastleggen op de doelen uit het zorgplan. Berichten kunnen zowel uit tekst, foto's en video's bestaan. Daarmee is MEXTRA een veilig alternatief voor WhatsApp binnen de zorg. MEXTRA voldoet aan NEN 7510 en ISO 27002 richtlijnen. Belangrijk: Deze MEXTRA app is alleen te gebruiken als u een geldig MeXtra account waarmee u ook inlogt op onze web versie op www.mextra.nl. Heeft u nog geen account en wilt u als zorgaanbieder gebruik gaan maken van MEXTRA of de mogelijkheden verkennen vraag dan een proefaccount aan en/of neem contact met ons op.

BaldCare Understand your scalp. Know what to do next. BaldCare is made for caring for a bald scalp. Whether you’ve just started shaving your head or have been bald for years, the app helps you understand your scalp and build a routine that works for you. Analyse your scalp, discover personal advice and products, and track your progress in one place. BaldCare is available in English and Dutch. UNDERSTAND YOUR SCALP Every scalp is different. BaldCare uses your profile, shaving method, care goals and relevant analysis results to tailor guidance and recommendations to your situation. ANALYSE YOUR SCALP Select a photo to learn about your scalp’s visible condition. The analysis shows skin type, sensitivity, shine, overall condition and a scalp score, with practical areas of concern when applicable. With Premium, you can also track specific moments, such as after shaving, after sun exposure or during a dry period. BaldCare provides care guidance, not a medical diagnosis, and does not replace a healthcare professional. BUILD YOUR ROUTINE From daily hydration and sun protection to care around shaving, build a routine that suits your scalp, shaving method and goals. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Save progress photos, compare moments and follow your scalp scores over time. View results by analysis context and see how your scalp develops. FIND PRODUCTS THAT FIT Explore selected products for sun protection, hydration, cleansing, shaving and recovery. Recommendations can be matched to your profile and relevant analysis results. ASK BALDCARE Ask your personal scalp guide about scalp care, shaving, products or your routine. If you enable personalised chat, the guide can take relevant information from your profile into account. BALDCARE ORIGINALS Watch short videos about scalp care, shaving, protection and daily care. PRIVACY FIRST Progress photos you save remain on your device. Your photo library is not uploaded automatically; only a photo you select for analysis is processed for that analysis. BaldCare does not sell personal data or use advertising trackers to follow you across other apps or websites.
