IMIGO

First Nations health and wellbeing app that supports you like a family member, at times

which may be stressful. Use IMIGO to hold your medical information, plus who you are

culturally. So, during appointments, hospital status or other moments this information is at

hand, and at your discretion to share with others. Enabling you to develop better

relationships with health professionals, and hopefully improve your personal health

outcomes.

You can save details about your personal medical clinic, specialists, diagnosis, medications,

save appointments in calendar, record your BP and sugar levels, but also save who your mob

is, the communities, Country and animals important to you. IMIGO also helps you search for

health services close to you, count your steps each day walking on Country and stay strong

in your spirit watching short video’s of fire burning or water running etc. How much

information about yourself you store in IMIGO is up to you, and this information is not

shared with other organisations. Sometimes when were very stressed its just helpful to

know quickly how to spell our medical information. I sometimes feel my thinking freezes up

at these times. Plus, in these moments its important health professionals learn more about

us than simply our medical concerns, we are First Nations people, we come from Country,

communities, may speak a First Nations language, may hold significant caring roles to others

and most importantly may include more than medical interventions in our pathway back to

healing, health and balance.

IMIGO was developed by a Yorta Yorta woman and other First Nations peoples input.
