GRIT Health

GRIT Health is Australia’s most comprehensive service to assist people with chronic and long-term health conditions better manage their health. Offering a no minimum sign up subscription service, GRIT Health has been designed to be your eyes and ears to make sure that you can do what you need to do to manage your health condition. Powered by the Gevity app, GRIT Health offers people the support of knowing that someone is by their side as they manage their health. The GRIT Health system uses the best available technology to inform you and your health team about how your health is tracking. It links with your health devices and apps to seamlessly aggregate all of your health data into one easy to use app. There is also the peace of mind in knowing that a highly skilled and experienced GRIT Health Coach is also keeping an eye on your progress, meaning that any time you are not managing, we will know about it and support you to do something about it. GRIT Health gives you new insight into your health.

Whether you’re tracking high blood pressure, monitoring diabetes, managing pregnancy, improving cholesterol, losing weight or simply staying fit... GRIT Health has you covered.

The easy to use GRIT Health app also links with a large range of popular devices and apps including Devices like Fitbit, Garmin, Misfit, Jawbone, Withings and iHealth to name a few, as well many great apps, such as MyFitnessPal, RunKeeper, MapMyFitness and Strava. This means that instead of having to remember to record what you are doing, your device does it for you. Don’t worry though if you don’t have one of these devices. The GRIT Health app allows you to manually enter your data if you need to; keeping our subscription rates low and allowing you to keep living your life without too much intrusion.

The GRIT Health app is comprised of three major components:

1. Dashboard - shows your health status at a glance, across 7 dimensions. These beautiful screens allow you to easily tell if you’re on track.

2. Health Plan - is comprised of four different plans (medication, monitoring, exercise and nutrition), developed by you or a member of your health team (e.g. personal trainers, exercise physiologists, doctors, nurses etc). The Health Plan drives the management of your health and the GRIT Health monitoring team monitors your compliance against it.

3. Risk Profile - uses the same clinically proven algorithms used by doctors to predict your future health risks. This helps you understand how your current health and lifestyle choices directly affect your long-term well being.

GRIT Health also allows you to share your health data to nominated clinicians, caregivers and family members, enabling better disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment and monitoring. Sharing health data (i.e. linked accounts) requires an In-App Purchase (see details below).

Once you have signed up to GRIT Health we do all the heaving lifting for you, working with you to develop your personalised health plan, liaising with your GP and other members of your health team to make sure that your plans are right for you. Once your health plan is in place we will work with you to make sure that the interventions in the plan are working and that you can continue to live your life the way you want. Our goal with GRIT Health is to be there for you but not take over your life. We recognise that having a long term health problem can be frustrating and that effectively managing such a condition requires determination, persistence and courage; it requires GRIT.
