The What Matters app is a simple, user-friendly interface with streamlined screens for ease of use. The dashboard and related screens provide a smooth navigation experience for both staff and family partners.

Each patient profile includes essential information—along with personalized details—such as calming strategies, interests, and activities that bring comfort and joy.

The app's media gallery features meaningful videos tailored to each patient’s preferences, helping promote comfort, engagement, and positive interactions while supporting staff in providing compassionate care.
