We, at Zenithech, believed that in order to tackle the challenge, a comprehensive solution was needed that would include:
An app for the person at risk for suicide which provides them with helpful resources, safety plan and appointment information (ReachZ).
A companion app for the care provider to work collaboratively with the person at risk in order to formulate a safety plan/follow-up appointments and share it with them using QR Codes (ReachZ Companion App).
