"They'll just be able to pick it up and use it."

In a recent Mobili-T retraining with a multi-site facility, they told us they initially purchased the system to use with outpatient programs for its portability. "Our other systems were wired so they were harder to use and less portable."

Every clinic has that cabinet full of unused technology. Productivity requirements in the healthcare system means time is a valuable resource so new tech shouldn't take too much time. Ease of use and implementation of biofeedback is exactly what we're going for.

That initial quote is the best compliment we received. We told the clinical manager to invite their inpatient/acute clinicians to the training if they would be using it as well. She felt confident that even if they can't make it, "if the need is there, they'll just be able to pick it up and use it."

No certifications necessary. We provide the training, but as our user said, you'll "just be able to pick it up and use it."

How important is ease of use to your workplace?

This week our customer success team is BUSY onboarding facilities, getting them up and running with Mobili-T as a vital tool in their dysphagia treatment. What's different now than when we started?

We're seeing these facilities come back after success with Mobili-T at one site, to expand across multiple sites. 🎯 🎯 🎯

They've seen the proven impact that biofeedback with Mobili-T can have in terms of 👍 improving outcomes and 💰 cutting costs associated with dysphagia, so we're helping them scale.

👇Download our guide to reducing dysphagia care costs to see some of the benefits that led these sites to expand.

How do you select the right tech for health-related goals and better outcomes?

It helps to know WHY the technology will support you or your patients. Maybe you need it to:
➡ Lead the way to new habits (keep you honest!)
➡ Help you a learn a new skill (teacher!)
➡ Provide feedback on how to do better (personal coach!)
➡ Motivate you to continue (cheerleader!)

Those are a lot to ask, but biofeedback can be each and every one of them. If you're not sure how this applies, here's a refresher on how biofeedback transforms swallowing exercises into SMART goals and you'll want to stay tuned for how biofeedback applies to breathwork.

🏥 Healthcare practitioners, you'll never look at breathing the same way.

Our CEO, Jana Rieger had the chance to speak with medical SLP Christina Kang Rosow. As a trained singer, Christina experienced voice loss and dysphagia which were detrimental to her craft and her mental well being.

Her experience shaped her professional expertise as a SLP, with extensive knowledge in pain management, muscle tension and its impact on voice and swallowing. This intersection of personal and professional makes her perspective a must-listen for anyone who aims to help patients overcome barriers and treat "the whole person".

This is not your average webinar.

This is what it looks like when your facility adopts Mobili-T:
✅ Learn how it works
✅ Set facility-specific goals for use
✅ Receive ongoing support

That’s our Tried and True process. We don’t want evidence-based tools sitting unused, so we make sure you can implement them.

💬 Get in touch to learn more about our Tried and True implementation process.

Caught you in the act!

⚠ Right now you’re likely experiencing “email apnea”: the temporary cessation of breath when you’re in front of a screen.

😡 Unconsciously holding your breath can trigger a “fight or flight” response. Staying in this state for long persiod of time can trigger anxiety, and negatively impact learning memory and sleep).

What to do:
🌬 Become aware of your breath
🌬 Pause and take 3 deep breaths
🌬 Check your posture, sit up!

We help people take charge of things they think they can’t control. So far we’ve made it possible to see your swallowing (Mobili-T) and feel your breathwork ( ), breaking down barriers to improvement in these areas.

How will you take charge of your email apnea today? 👇

How do you advocate for new tech in your workplace?

It usually comes down to 💰💰💰

By making Mobili-T capable of remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM), we've come up with a solution that pays for itself (which makes it a way easier sell to the decision makers).

Mobili-T is FDA-cleared which means it can be used to bill RTM CPT codes. This turns time clinicians are already spending on patient care, into billable time.

Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) with Mobili-T can:
1. Incorporate home program monitoring into your billable time
2. Provide convenient and better access to care
3. Support better outcomes for patients
4. Help patients become more engaged in therapy

💬 Comment "RTM" for a guide you can use to advocate for providing RTM services and how Mobili-T makes this possible.

Have you ever felt like your work and personal life overlap?

Or maybe a personal story has influenced your work. As caring professionals this can leave you burnt out. If this is the case, you'll want to hear medical SLP, Ting-fen Lin's story.

Ting-fen's perspective is so honest, everyone is sure to hear something they can relate to - clinically and personally.

Pause and catch a breath while you listen to this podcast (even if you listen at 1.5x playback speed...because we know the time struggle is real). We'd love to hear from you about how your work and life inspire each other!
