'HARDR.app' is an Oakwood Health Network-owned support application for men with erectile dysfunction-related challenges. The application itself serves as a treatment progress tracker, a professional support network, a databank of helpful tips and tricks, and more.
The HARDR app presents users with a six-question survey each month. This survey determines the severity of the condition, the progress made compared to previous months, the types of exercises and treatment plans being used, and the recommended next steps for each user. While this survey and support system work effectively on their own for all users, patients can gain further access to the services available on the HARDR app by becoming a patient of the Oakwood Health Network. These patients have access to an evolving dashboard that shows helpful information related to the treatment and condition progress over time, for as long as they are a patient on the app.
