Company information:
RxPx (previously known as Curatio) provides peer to peer patient apps to help deliver personalized social support, education, coaching, and adherence at scale. Our mission is “No Patient Alone” and one of the ways we accomplish this is by creating private communities for individuals experiencing a similar health journey to connect with one another and access evidence-based content.
More about the C-Section Program:
This initiative is sponsored by Health Canada as a part of the competitive Innovative Solutions Canada program, for which RxPx has been selected. The program is designed for mothers who are expecting a planned c-section, or who may have to undergo an unplanned c-section. The program includes evidence-based content to help mothers prepare for and recover from their c-section, both physically and mentally. Participants will also have the opportunity to connect with and support other mothers who are anticipating a c-section or educating themselves about a c-section in case it is something they will need.
